Hot Press-Jess Kav: Between Fermented Dreams and Leonard Cohen There's A Busy Month in Store!

The former lead singer with Barq, Jess Kav, started the year with a bunch of new songs – before realising that she had the basis for a musical on her hands. The resulting theatrical show previews in Bewley’s Cafe Theatre tonight – and she’ll be singing Leonard Cohen songs in 3Arena later in the month...

Its going to be a busy September for singer, songwriter and now actor and playwright Jess Kavanagh, who is previewing her new production Fermented Dreams with a performance on Monday September 9 (that’s tonight, folks) as part of the Dublin Fringe Festival.

That’ll be followed by full-scale performances, on Tuesday 10, Wednesday 11, Friday 13 and two shows on Saturday 14 September. A mere seven days later, she is set to play a Leonard Cohen tribute show – to celebrate what would have been his 90th birthday on September 21 – featuring with the RTÉ Concert Orchestra at 3Arena, in a show which also includes vocal performances from Mick Flannery, Suzanne Savage and Pheilim Drew.
