Unforgettable Dinah Washington: Lisa Tomlins and Wade Reeve Live

Unforgettable Dinah Washington: Lisa Tomlins & Wade Reeve Live

A Tribute to the Queen of the Blues

Dinah Washington, the self-proclaimed “Queen of the Blues,” was a powerhouse of jazz, blues, and soul whose voice defined an era. Now, her timeless repertoire is being reimagined by Aotearoa’s own queen of soulful expression—the incomparable Lisa Tomlins.

Lisa’s vocal versatility is legendary. Whether interpreting Tower of Power, jazz standards, or contemporary pop, she brings depth, warmth, and unmistakable style. She’s graced stages with L.A.B., Fly My Pretties, Neil Finn, and countless others—earning her place as one of New Zealand’s most beloved vocalists.

Joining her is the ever-tasteful guitarist Wade Reeve, whose intuitive playing complements Lisa’s voice with elegance and restraint. If you caught their stunning set at CubaDupa, you already know the magic this duo creates.

Maybe you'll hear Dinah’s most iconic songs—What a Diff’rence a Day Made, Cold, Cold Heart, September in the Rain, and of course, Unforgettable. This afternoon promises to be just that.
