Rickie Lee Jones

The piano sounded absolutely horrible, as if it was in another room. The guitar was out of tune. But none of that matters when Lee Jones was in such a good mood and sung some of her best songs. Absolutely wonderful.

We Love Ricky Lee! The concert was so personal and the Venue The Boulder Theatre was the perfect venue for her performance. We felt like we were at a big party that Ricky Lee was throwing and we were all Guests at her place and she came out at a point to entertain us at her house. She's a Treasure, so genuine. Her interpretation of the poetry in her songs is uniquely her own. Powerful and Touching. We have made love to Ricky Lee more than any other music in our 37 years of Marriage.

Never pass up a chance to see Rickie Lee Jones! Every show I’ve been to has delivered with emotion-filled artistry. Her voice is better than ever, and the music created between Rickie Lee Jones and drummer/vibes/percussionist Mike Dillon is magic.

Ricki Lee Jones is a magical and gifted musician! This intimate experience was SO memorable...being in the third row for this event was akin to meeting up with Ricki Lee for a night of great banter and song...she remains one of the best and most unique artists I could ever hope to see live. Thank you Ricki Lee!!

Rickie Lee was fresh and wonderful and energetic and funny., Her procussionest was the perfect accompaniment. Their chemistry was amazing, An added bonus was her piano talent as well. The venue was the ideal setting. Bravo!

I saw her last October 2023 in Los Angeles at "The Roxy". What a perfect night! As I always say beecause, I truely mean it: "Rickie Lee Jones" has the voice of an Angel... Thank you Rickie for sharing your beautiful music to "The World"!

Rickie Lee Jones was great!! She played guitar and piano and was accompanied by her percussionist. She related well with the audience and played for 2 hours without an intermission. Rickie Lee is just the best!!!

Just fantastic. Rickie can still hit all of the notes. She spends a lot of time chatting and bantering, making wry remarks. Great said list, which she clearly was deciding somewhat on the fly. Her percussionist whose name I cannot remember, is also fantastic. Full percussion set and vibraphone. Rickie did a bunch of songs with her acoustic guitar and several beautiful renditions on the piano. At one point someone in the audience reminded her that the day of this show was the 45th anniversary of the day her first record dropped. She clearly had not really known that. It took her a full 30 seconds to recover because she was so struck with emotion. It was so sweet. Just a good person making great music. FYI The Tarkington in Indianapolis is a nice little 500 seat venue with an attached, free (!) parking garage with elevator access to the venue itself.

Perfect venue. Ricky Lee was a personable storyteller and she still has that voice that made her famous. The only issue was she didn’t play We Belong Together, so I cried, but seriously it was a great show.

The next night she played Prospect Park's Celebrate Brooklyn outdoor show pending a storm. No storm, but she was electric, and what a band !!! Old songs, new songs, what a stylist she is. She gets it from her vaudvillian grandfather Peg Leg Jones, who taught her those old songs when she was yay high, and she learned them well. Great Show !!!!!

Absolutely amazing Still got it, great show such a fabulous voice and great selection of songs. Awesome bonus for me she had some class musicians with her from the New York scene... sublime. We were still buzzing after it ❤️❤️❤️

Rickie Lee was amazing. I felt like she was singing directly to me. Threw in a few songs from earlier albums which I loved but would have been satisfied with the songs from the new record. Her voice was so crisp and pure. It was just what I needed. Great venue too.

Rickie Lee Jones was her charming and honest self. She can be quite funny. Her performance was real good. Her singing has as much expression as always. She played a mix of old and new with the mix heavily weighed to her new material. Her version of the standards she chose was refreshing as she made the songs her own. I would have liked a few more songs, but on the other hand I was ready to get out of there due to the uncomfortable seating. The venue on the other hand was miserable. Why her management team selected that venue is a mystery to me. City Winery lost a lot of customers resulting from the overly crowded conditions.

I enjoyed every second of RLJ's live-streamed show from Birdland last evening. Her band members each were exquisite on their own, and cohesive as a band, and Rickie Lee's choice of standards as well as self-authored tunes was rich with emotion. Her voice is remarkable, and the timing and arrangements were mesmerizing. I have pre-ordered her new album. Thank you for the perfect sound mix and clean broadcast.

I was a beret wearing jazz influenced hitch hiking hippie girl in Hermosa beach before I heard Rickie Lee and when I heard her…. Well , she was playing music that spoke to me like no other songwriter. I kept wearing my beret and one night at the Brandywine in Santa Monica a whole table of people stared at me. Finally one of them walked over and said “we thought you were out old friend Rickie Lee”. That was a compliment for sure. But it took me til my 40s to front a jazz band and I have yet to really write a song. Rickie on the other hand is a true poet and songwriter. Her show at the winery in Napa was satisfying . Lovely warm evening , front row outdoors at bistro tables in the grass . Somehow intimate. She said the first set in the heat of the day almost killed her. I relished the songs as the sun went down. Her great percussionist had second duty selling her Tshirts between shows. That must feel odd to have your band mates selling your merch. It’s not the glory days I guess but Rickie is performing well at what age? 68? My boyfriend who didn’t know her music as well said “ I feel honored” to have witnessed this. Having started the journey of her very poignant prose of a memoir, I feel so much deeper understanding and connection to her music. Rickie Lee, you inspire me to no end. Thank you - Thank you. I know I’m just one of a million fans in life’s musical sea but I imagine sitting around with you and a few other musicians playing, singing, and sipping wine into the wee hours. I will keep that lil fantasy. In song and with gratitude, Julie Crystel

It was an AMAZING show! Not 1 second of it was a disappointment. She was fantastic, of course, and her accompanying musicians were perfectly on point. The venue was beautiful, intimate and good sound. I'll definitely be back. And if I had the money, I'd follow Rickie Lee Jones around the country and (through the grocery stores.) ❤😎

It was just great. Rickie Lee and I go back a long way - - you know, being of similar ages, me being the mind blown listener of her music as she presented it over the years. Being in the audience with her music, within her mature distillation -playing that guitar so cunningly and the piano, sublimely. I've taken her pretty seriously to heart, believe her when she sings, and keep as a memory in that heart pocket of mine: So you keep talking in many languages Telling us the way you feel Don't stop confiding in the road you're on Don't quit, you're walking satellites

Grande musica !! Esecuzioni molto libere e creative con musicisti sopraffini. Verrebbe da chiamarlo free blues, per richiamare il free jazz... Rickie è un'antidiva totale. 60 passati da un pezzo ma indossa chissà perché un vestitino nero, corto e attillato con il quale combatte corpo a corpo per tutto il concerto. Ride, parla da sola, apostrofa il pubblico "Ehi, ma come siete seri...!!!". Quando parla ha una cantilena un po' stanca e strascicata, un timbro arrochito che punta un po' verso il suo amato Tom... Poi improvvisamente inizia a cantare e si trasforma completamente. La vocetta nasale e quasi infantile che l'ha resa famosa spunta dal nulla, ed inizia a giocare con una maestria priva di ogni vanità. Poi si mette ad armeggiare con un altoparlante, poi dice ai musicisti di smettere di suonare perché vuole finire il pezzo solo con voce e pianoforte... Concordo con lei : il pubblico dell'Auditorium era davvero troppo ingessato e compassato per questa eterna ribelle...

Rickie put on a wonderful heartfelt show at the Cedar. She shared a lot of very amusing stories about her songs and her life. And she sang a song her father wrote which was one of highlights of the night. Had such a great connection with the audience, I could have listened to her all night!

As usual, a great performance from Rickie Lee and her very tight backing band.A nice mix of old and new from her.I've seen her many times and she never disappoints!Hurry back, Portland Oregon loves us some Rickie Lee Jones!
