Barb Jungr Sings Dylan & Cohen
Award-winning singer & writer and “Our greatest interpreter of Dylan’s songs”, Barb Jungr, returns with a collection of Dylan and Cohen’s most iconic songs mixing her best and award winning interpretations with a selection of challenging new arrangements of these classic songbooks. Fresh from curating the first ever UK festival of Bob Dylan for Farnham Maltings, Visions of Dylan, Barb embarks on a series of shows celebrating two of the greatest contemporary songwriters of the western world.
One of the most extraordinary British performers of her generation. Barb Jungr’s formidable talent as a singer, composer and lyricist is only outshined by her ability to reinterpret familiar songs and reveal new depths of meaning and beauty. Internationally acclaimed, Jungr continues to evolve her signature style while her transcendent artistry both live and recorded continues to delight audiences.
In 2014, Barb followed her award winning, internationally acclaimed collection of Dylan songs “Every Grain Of Sand” with “Hard Rain”, laying herself bare to Dylan’s and Cohen’s political and philosophical songs. Hard Rain gained many 4 and 5 star reviews for its uncompromising and powerful renditions. Bob Dylan’s manager called it “some heavy music”. Praise indeed. Jungr’s dedication to re-inventing Dylan’s and Cohen’s repertoire has contributed to her formidable reputation as perhaps the best performer of their songs in the world.
