The Music Of Annie Lennox and The Eurythmics
At Jeans 'n Classics we are very proud of all of the 46 different shows we have developed, and of the very talented people who
through their incredible gifts, dedication and team spirit continue to inspire and make possible what we do.
This past January in home base London, our own bar was raised substantially when we presented the Annie Lennox tribute.
This show seemed to transcend eras, styles and preferences and simply left everyone on stage and in the audience
with a kind of wonderful sense of ...wow !
To the ladies who were able to weave their magic,and make it possible you have my sincere admiration, thanks and love.
I'm not sure how it gets any better !

Jeans 'n Classics opened 2009 with Orchestra London and "Sweet Dreams: The Music of Annie Lennox". The show featured J'nC's six stand-out female vocalists, including Katalin Kiss, Andrea Koziol, Kathryn Rose, Leah Salomaa,
Rique Franks and Lis Soderberg.
Clearly, the only way to describe the show was "Wow!". That seems to be the response from concertgoers.
Here are a couple of early reviews received at Ask John Regan...
John,
Some people talk with reverence of the Pink Floyd show. Some in awe of the Led Zeppelin show. Many with wonder
at the Billy Joel show.
Sweet Dreams: The Music of Annie Lennox belongs firmly in this list. Last night a was new showcase for the talent and versatility of J n C's female performers Lis, Katherine, Katalin, Rique, Leah and Andrea. WOW! Let me repeat that.
WOW! Absolutely, all night was a series of best moments. In addition to the outstanding vocals I was also
pleased that the ladies took to getting out from behind the mic stands and take over the stage. A terrific show
by everyone .... Congratulations.

Dear John,
I'm wanting to express my feelings about the Annie Lennox concert on January 10th.
WOW! WOW! WOW! It was fabulous.
The six ladies... Lis, Leah, Andrea, Katalin, Rique, & Kathryn did a superb job. Their voices are so rich, forceful, and beautiful and they all blend so well together. They were all smiling, and having fun, which makes the audience
smile and have fun. I think it was one of the best concerts ever.
Thank you to everyone on stage (the orchestra, the Jeans N Classics band, and the ladies) for making the
event so good.

Dear John,
Wow! The Annie Lennox concert last night was fabulous - the best concert this year. We have been attending
for about 10 years and always enjoy the shows. The six ladies that performed were amazing - nice to see
Lis Soderberg and Katalin Kiss back. They were having so much fun on stage - that atmosphere was electric!
They not only sang beautifully but entertained with stories and anecdotes making it a thoroughly enjoyable evening.
John,
We thoroughly enjoyed the Annie Lennox Show last night!! I was glad they included a song (LOST) from her latest CD.

The following letter was sent directly to Rique...
Hi Rique...I was at Friday's Orchestra London show and wanted to let you know that I was absolutely touched by your rendition of "Into The West". Your voice is so powerful and beautiful that I was brought to tears, as you were.
Your song was flawless!! I was not familiar with that song before you sang it, but I will never forget it!
You are an amazing vocalist and I hope to see you tons more in London.
Take care, Kelly
Hi John
We have been regular attendees of Jeans 'n Classics for many years on Saturday night. We have always
been impressed beyond words of the exceptional quality of the music each time. The girls did an amazing j
ob with the songs of Annie Lennox. They were all beautiful on stage and looked like they thoroughly were
true friends having a super time together. ( I really don't know how you actually wear high heels when you're 6 mths. pregnant-kudos to Kathryn!).
