Bette Midler

Theatrical pop that bridges the gap between smoky jazz clubs and the bright lights of Broadway. Equal parts heartbreak and high-energy camp.

It's like sitting in a front-row seat at a 1970s cabaret where the singer breaks your heart and then buys you a drink.

A sophisticated blend of lonely-at-the-bar melancholy and show-stopping theatrical bravado.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition from the eerie Wizard of Oz harmonies into the brassy explosion of Lullaby of Broadway.
The gut-wrenching vulnerability in the lower register during the opening lines of Surabaya Johnny.
The gospel-tinged crescendo of I Shall Be Released where the backing vocals finally meet her power.
