FANS of classic jazz songs and singers are in for a treat when Arts Alive bringsJuliet Kelly, who has taken the jazz scene by storm, to local venues.
Accompanied by an excellent pianist, Juliet presents a tribute to the jazz divas who have inspired and influenced her. With her distinctive velvety voice and ‘glam jazz’ style, Juliet’s performance includes songs from iconic jazz vocalists including Nina Simone, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan and Billie Holliday, and showcases popular favourites as well as lesser-known gems.
Juliet Kelly has worked with outstanding musicians including Courtney Pine, Talvin Singh and Seb Rochford. Her critically acclaimed albums have won her many fans and she has performed sell-out shows around the UK, across Europe and in Russia.
"An original talent rare amongst those who would call themselves jazz singers. One of the UK’s finest female jazz stars." declared Jazzwise magazine.
