Mary Coughlan is often described as the greatest female vocalist that
Ireland has ever produced, standing alongside some of the world’s most iconic
jazz singers. She is unique in blending whisky-blurred, smoke-seared, husky
notes with the laconic wit of Billie Holiday and Peggy Lee. She draws the
line of deep, down and dirty blues singers back to Bessie Smith with the
sardonic, bitter-sweet defiance and despair of Edith Piaf. Yet Mary Coughlan
delivers it all in a delicious and unapologetic Irish drawl: sceptical, rueful,
mournful and melting and ardent for love.
Mary Coughlan is one of our greatest singers because over 40 years she has
made the most grown-up, uncompromising, wholly personal yet utterly universal
music on either side of the Atlantic about what goes on between men and women.
