This is the second album by the critically acclaimed Blue Harlem and what an album it is! Talk To Me features rhythm 'n' blues classics influenced by artists such as Billie Holiday, Ruth Brown, Dinah Washington and particularly early Ray Charles. It is contemporary urban blues at its best. Featuring the lead vocals of Dublin-born Imelda May who recently went down a storm after appearing on Jools Holland, is regarded by fans and critics alike as one of the finest vocalists currently emerging out of the UK roots music scene. She's a rockin' little minx; tough, sassy, sexy, classy, "a big voice on a fine tiny frame".

Blue Harlem have been widely regarded as one of the top swing/jump-blues bands on the London scene for over 15 years. They have become regular favourites at venues such as the world famous Ronnie Scott's, The100 Club, The Hippodrome, Hideaway, Jitterbugs and many, many more. They enjoy an international reputation - 2007 found them launching the 4th International Film Festival of Dubai and in 2008, they were personally invited by Baz Luhrmann to perform for the launch of his 1940's blockbuster movie ‘Australia’.

They have been invited on three separate occasions to perform at Highgrove House charity balls for the Prince’s Trust. They have an enviable reputation as a party band, having played for society soirees all over the UK - including Buckingham Palace, Annabel’s, The Sands Venue and Burgh Island. They also regularly perform abroad, appearing at jazz festivals in Spain, Norway, Belgium and Germany.
