ONE JAZZ presents with Ruth Fisher: Imogen Ryall Sings the Charles Mingus / Joni Mitchell Songbook
“Together with her magnificent band, Imogen Ryall delivers captivating renditions of ‘A Chair In The Sky’ and ‘The Dry Cleaner From Des Moines’ which shines a spotlight on her exceptional time feel.” Jazzwise

"This is an ambitious album which takes plenty of risks... it has the power to take one by surprise and is an unexpected triumph" AllAboutJazz.com

"This is history in the making" Sean Rafferty – In Tune, BBC Radio 3

BEST ALBUMS OF 2023 by Jazzwise magazine; JazzViews.com; The ArtsDesk.com; The New York City Jazz Record; PrestoMusic.com; AllAboutJazz.com

Imogen Ryall – vocals
Julian Nicholas – saxophones and whistle
David Beebee – piano
Nigel Thomas – bass
Eric Ford – drums

A tribute to an extraordinary coming together of two iconoclastic artists in their own fields. This astonishing project aims to embrace an historic confluence, rather than to mimic the sound of the now-considered classic 1979 Joni Mitchell album, Mingus.
​​
​Nominated for Best Vocalist and Best Album in the 2024 Parliamentary Jazz Awards, Imogen Ryall and her all star band featuring, Julian Nicholas; David Beebee and Eric Ford have performed the Mingus/Mitchell Songbook at Pizza Express Soho; Watermill Jazz Club and opened for this year’s Watford Jazz Junction Festival.
