Review: The Actor and Jazz FM Presenter Turns to Blues and Soul

by Patricia Nicol | The Sunday Times | January 8, 2023

Actor, dad, redhead and ping-pong champion” is how Damian Lewis bills himself on social media. Now he can add jazz presenter to the list.

On Damian Lewis the supple actor seemed to slip seamlessly into the smooth, somewhat self-regarding character of a jazz presenter.
