Cyndi Lauper at the 9:30 Club
The feisty and fun Cyndi Lauper? She’s got the blues? Well, yes, of sorts. On the all-covers Memphis Blues, her 11th studio set released earlier this year, the irrepressible New Yorker acquits herself rather nicely with locals of the Mississippi Delta. Lauper recorded the set in March at Memphis’s Electraphonic Studios, and she corralled a dozen or so of the genre’s greatest living legends to offer support, from B.B. King to Ann Peebles to Allen Toussaint to Charlie Musselwhite. It’ll be interesting to see how she brings the music to life when she stops at the 9:30 Club. Saturday, Nov. 27. Doors at 6 p.m. Nightclub 9:30, 815 V St. NW. Tickets are $45. Call 202-265-0930 or visit 930.com.
