Jazz is about freedom and connection—when two musicians truly listen to each other, borders disappear.
—Yulia Yagunova
Pianist and keyboardist Yulia Yagunova joined Moscow-based vocalist Natalia Borodulina for a special concert at the Mellow Yellow Club. Originally presented as Borodulina’s Beth Hart Tribute, the evening evolved into a unique collaboration titled In Jazz Only Girls, bringing together two powerful international female performers on one stage.

A Night of Female Jazz Energy

The concert featured reinterpretations of Beth Hart’s most iconic songs—from soulful ballads to fiery blues-rock anthems. With Yagunova’s expressive keyboard style and Borodulina’s rich, emotive voice, the duo created a late-night blues-bar atmosphere filled with depth, groove, and authenticity.

The chemistry between the two artists was electric. Their collaboration highlighted the strength and emotional range of women in jazz and blues, merging passion and technical mastery into a performance that resonated deeply with the audience. The night became a celebration of musical dialogue and artistic empowerment.
