Alongside Terence Collie, Esther Bennett has produced & recorded a new album called “Home is Where the Art Is” – A labour of love that explores her Birmingham roots and family connections in poetry & spoken word, featuring the music of artist and musician Didier Messidoro.
Also, on the album and accompanied by Terence Collie on piano – are some incredibly quirky interpretations of a few well known and widely performed jazz standards that bear Esther’s trademark humour, ability to tell a story and poignancy.
