Emmy Award Winner, Triple Grammy Nominee\n\nDavid Bowie wrote the song “Andy Warhol” for Dana Gillespie, and she paid the favour back by singing backing vocals on Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars.

She has since focused exclusively on blues and become one of genres most magnificent songwriters and performers.\nA true honour to welcome her to Jersey for, remarkably, her first show! Expect not only unforgettable music but also some extraordinary stories from her eventful and well chronicled life in the music business.\nDana will perform with old friend Dino Baptiste is an extraordinary piano virtuoso.
