How high the moon
I can't give you anything but love
I concentrate on you
I could write a book
I didn't know about you
I didn't know what time it was
I got rhythm
I love Paris
I thought about you
I'm in the Mood for Love
I'm Old Fashioned
In a mellow Tone
It could happen to you
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing
It had to be you
It might as well be spring
It's alright with me
It's De-lovely
It's only a paper moon
It's you or no one
I've got a crush on you
I've got you under my skin

This time the dream's on me
Turn me on
Wave
What is this thing called love?
Where or when
Why was I born
Without a song
You don't know what love is
You go to my head
You're the Top

Customer questions
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
I am happy to be flexible around timings as I know organising events can be tricky. Just let me know of possible changes in the run up to the day.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
I am happy to provide a iPod playlist of classic jazz tunes between sets
How much time do you need to set up?
I would usually require 40 minutes to set up before a performance.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
I am happy to work with you to create a set list that will go down well
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes, I will bring all equipment needed
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
If there is a song not already in my setlist I am happy to discuss.
What do your clients love most about your performances?
The energy, musicianship and fun of rediscovering classic songs- people like to be moved by music -whether its tapping their toes or sipping an elegant cocktail to a brooding ballad, audiences love the interaction between musicians, my friendly confident manner and singing a song with heart.
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
I have enjoyed playing at the Savoy London, Scarfes Bar Rosewood Hotel, The Connaught Hotel, Cafe Boheme, Oxo Tower Restaurant, The Bloomsbury Hotel, the Allis, Mash bar, The Rubens Leopard Bar and when I can get down there the jam at Ronnies!
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
Cecile McLorin Salvant,Ella Fitzgerald, Blossom Dearie, Nina Simone and Nancy Wilson for vocalists with a personality to their voice and their own style of delivery on stage- I love a warm vintage tone! I enjoy attempting to transcribe Charlie Parker and Bud Powell.
What is the most high profile gig you've performed?
I am performed at a number of private parties with large audiences.
