In Ali's new show 'Alchemy' she draws on all of her influences from Opera, Burlesque and trashy 80’s pop divas for inspiration and working with the finest Jazz musicians creates unique hybrids from popular songs, standards and blues.
Expect to hear unique mash-ups and genre-defying versions of Madonna, Salt 'n Pepa, Radiohead and Elvis like they were sung by a 40's siren in a Las Vegas club.
Ali is one of this country's most versatile singers and her incredible vocal range and entertaining and emotive performance style brings a truly individual flavour to some of your most favourite songs.
