The live stage is where Jude comes into her own. Seated at her piano, and accompanied by top musicians, she delivers her songs and the stories behind them, with her gentle nature, self-deprecating humor, and quick wit. Jude will be accompanied by musicians David Mansfield (Bob Dylan, Sting, Loudin Wainright) on mandolin, guitar, violin and Tim Ouimette (Ray Charles) on trumpet.
