Summary
Mahalia Barnes electrified the stage with a powerful tribute to women in rock, anchored by the iconic 1979 film The Rose—a fictionalized portrait of a rock legend’s rise and fall, originally inspired by Janis Joplin. Though the film’s elusive, its soundtrack lives on, and Mahalia delivered knockout renditions of “Sold My Soul To Rock n Roll” and “The Rose,” showcasing raw power and delicate control. She expanded the tribute to include Janis, Tina Turner, and Nina Simone, igniting the crowd with “Proud Mary.” Her deep respect for her band shone through as she spotlighted their virtuosity, including an instrumental from the film. Don’t miss Mahalia’s next Adelaide Cabaret Festival appearance—she’s a force you can’t afford to miss. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
