Music News: ALEXANDRA BURKE to perform 'Lady Sings The Blues' live


It may seem like former X Factor winner ALEXANDRA BURKE has been a little quiet on the music front for the last year. However she has not only been busy working on her third album but has taken time to work on a secret project that is close to her heart.

'Lady Sings The Blues' was the 1972 biopic based on the life of legendary jazz singer BILLIE HOLIDAY. The movie starred DIANA ROSS, her first acting role, in the title role. It is this movie and it's soundtrack that has always been a favourite of ALEXANDRA's and has lead to her creating a unique live show based around it's classic music.

thatgrapejuice.net reports that the show will be exclusively performed live at London's Royal Albert Hall from 4th - 8th of June. Tickets are available from tomorrow, 27th March via their website www.royalalberthall.com/tickets/

As a taster of what to expect, have a listen to DIANA ROSS' version of this jazz standard 'God Bless The Child' taken from the original soundtrack
