Madeline Bell performs Huber for the last time. Costa News Spain

As a special treat in the last month ever of Huber in Estepona, the great Jazz diva Madeline Bell will be joining Daniel Amat and Francis José on double bass for an unforgettable night.

Madeline Bell began her career singing in a gospel choir in the mid-50s. Her talent took her around the globe, and she notably toured Europe with the musical ‘Black Nativity’ in 1962. Bell settled down in London following the tour. As a backing vocalist, Bell worked with many well-known artists such as Dusty Springfield Tom Jones Scott Walker Long John Baldry Joe Cocker Elton John. Her 1967 solo album in the UK featured the song ‘Picture Me Gone,’ which is heralded as a significant Northern Soul classic. Later in the 1960s, Bell became a part of the pop group Blue Mink, where she contributed to the popular hit ‘Melting Pot’.

Last time the trio played Huber it was sold out quickly. They performed a mix of songs from Ray Charles, Carole King and Eddie Cookie as well originals by Madeline.

Their final gig at Huber Art and Food in Calle San Antonio, 27, Estepona will be on Saturday, February 15 at 8pm. There are no advanced tickets, and it’s €20 in cash on the door. First come first served.
