A natural performer and composer, the singer made her television debut at the age of 15 on the BBC Pebble Mill’s A Song For Christmas, performing one of her own compositions. She performed as a soloist on Millennium eve at the Millennium Dome and is currently working on her first album with Grammy Award winning producer, Kipper (of Sting fame), and British jazz piano legend, Jason Rebello.

This is a unique band. Not only is it an all-female ensemble, but all the music they perform has been specially arranged to feature the individual players in the group.

The musicians featured arise from a contrasting spectrum of musical backgrounds: The trumpet and flugelhorn player has not only performed regularly with a variety of Britain’s top jazz musicians, such as Sir John Dankworth, and Lawrence Cottle, but can also be heard with the likes of pop and rock artists such as Radio Head and Jack Penate.

The tenor sax player frequently performs with artists such as Jamie Cullum, Georgie Fame and the Ronnie Scott’s Vanguard Band. She was the winner of the Perrier Young Jazz Ensemble Award (1999), with a quintet led by trumpeter Tom Allen.

The pianist has toured across Europe with The Rat Pack, has been featured as a soloist with the New English Orchestra, and has played with many British jazz musicians such as Alan Barnes and Steve Waterman.

The youngest member of the band is the bassist who has studied with some of the world’s best bass players, Jeff Clyne, Steve Watts and Omar Puente for example. She regularly performs in Salsa parties, swing dances, rock bands, including Charlotte Hatherley (formerly of Ash), as well as contemporary classical concerts.

The drummer has toured with Roots Manuva, and has played with jazz greats such as Stan Sulzman, Julian Joseph, George Melly, and Mornington Lockett.  

The band performs music from an extensive repertoire. As well as popular jazz numbers from artists such as Diana Krall, Jamie Cullum, Glenn Miller, and Frank Sinatra, they also write jazz arrangements of well known pop tunes from The Beatles, Amy Winehouse, and Stevie Wonder for example, and of Classical composers such as Bach or Elgar. The group can arrange any particular piece of music in advance at the client’s request.
