Barb Jungr voted Number 1
Barb Jungr has been voted the Number One Cabaret Act of 2011 by Time Out New York. Following her hugely successful run at the Metropolitan Room in October TIme Out NY commented: 'The extraordinary English singer didn't just cover Bob Dylan's songs; she uncovered and discovered them with exuberant musical insight.'
It was not just New York that Barb impressed this year. As part of her US tour she performed sell-out shows in San Francisco, St Louis and Cleveland where she won many new fans and delighted all those who follow her impressive career. The notoriously hard to please critics were equally impressed:
'...Jungr's inspired interpretations of Dylan's songs make her performance electrifying.' NY Theatre Wire
'...Jungr doesn't just interpret 13 Dylan classics, she re-imagines them.' Times Square Chronicles
'Jungr knocks it out of the park...' Cabaret Scenes
'She is dazzling...a phenomenal master song interpreter and stylist.' Cabaret Confessional
'She sings with a passion and tenderness that not even Mr. Dylan himself could have imagined.' Wall Street Journal
'...the most significant vocal album of the 21st century thus far.' NY Culture
