Singer
London

Originally from Greece, Eleonora Kouneni is a London-based singer-songwriter and jazz vocalist. 
 At the age of 16, she started writing and regularly performing her own songs at bars in Athens and Greek islands. She also participated in concerts and festivals in Greece, the most prominent of which was the 16th Anti-Racism Festival (Athens, Greece, 2012), where she opened for legendary greek vocalists Maria Farantouri and Savina Yannatou. 
 She moved to London in her early twenties to pursue a career in music, where she fell in love with jazz. Since 2018, Eleonora has been establishing herself in the London jazz scene, performing in various London bars and venues, including the Vortex Jazz Club and the Green Note. 
 In 2022 she released her first two singles, "Stay" and “Effortlessly”, both of which were commended in the UK songwriting competition. Her debut EP "If You Just..." will be released in spring 2023.

Eleonora's Song list

Jazz
Ain't misbehaving
All of me
All the things you are
At last
Autumn leaves
Baby I'm a fool
Beautiful Love
Bewitched bothered and bewildered
Black coffee
Blame it on my youth
Blue Skies
Body and Soul
But not for me
Bye Bye Blackbird
Darn that dream
Day in, day out
Drop me off in Harlem
East of the sun
Everything happens to me
Fly me to the moon
Have you met Miss Jones
Historia de un amor
Hit the road Jack
How high the moon
I can’t give you anything but love
I'll be seeing you
I've never been in love before
It could happen to you
It don't mean a thing
Just friends
Just in time
L-O-V-E
Let’s fall in love
Lover man
Lullaby of Birdland
Misty
Moon river
My baby just cares for me
My one and only love
My romance
Nature boy
Night and day
No moon at all
No more blues
On the sunny side of the street
Summertime
Take the A train
Tea for two
Teach me tonight
That old feeling
The lady is a tramp
There is no greater love
There will never be another you
These foolish things
They can't take that away from me
Till there was you
What is this thing called love
Why don’t you do right
Willow weep for me
You don't know what love is
You'd be so nice to come home to
Christmas Jazz songs
Auld lang syne
Baby it's cold outside
Have yourself a Merry little Christmas
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
It's the most wonderful time of the year
Jingle Bell Rock
Let it snow
Man with the bag
Rockin' around the Christmas tree
Santa Baby
Santa Clause is coming to town
What are you doing New Year's Eve
Soul/Funk/Pop
A change is gonna come
At last
Back to Black
Bang Bang
Blue Jeans
Creep
Don’t Look Back In Anger
Englishman in New York
Fade Into You
Feeling good
Hurt
I Will Survive
Let it be
Love is a losing game
Love the way you lie
Mad about you
Make you feel my love
Rehab
Rolling in the deep
Set fire to the rain
Simply Falling
Skyfall
Someone like you
Stand by me
Superstition
These boots are made for walking
This Is The Life
Valerie
You know I’m no good

Customer questions

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

We always try our best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let us know.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Absolutely. We can offer a playlist service for free between sets. If you'd like a DJ service via our PA after the final set until the venue closes, we provide this for an additional £100.

How much time do you need to set up?

We usually set up about 1 to 1.5 hours before the performance time. As soon as our PA is set up we can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for our live performance!

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

We're definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works best for your event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, absolutely! We always bring our own instruments, microphones, cables etc, and can also provide a PA system, upon request.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

If a song isn't included in our song list there may still be a chance we already know it. If there is a special song you'd like us to learn we are happy to do this for you. There is a fee of £30 for this service to take into account rehearsal times etc.

What do your clients love most about your performances?

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

I performed my own compositions at the 16th Anti-Racism festival of Athens in 2012, opening for one of the most respected Greek singers, Maria Farantouri. I also performed a song of mine in a stadium concert against the closure of a daily Greek newspaper, highly respected for its independence and impartiality: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbqmX97vLY8
