About Jessie

An Oxford-based singer, songwriter and pianist with experience in improvised cocktail-piano playing and extended song sets.
Jessie Morrell's profile picture
Singing pianist
Oxford

I am a final year Music student at Oxford University who has experience playing in background and cocktail-style piano at weddings, funerals and social functions, and as a singer-songwriter at a range of shows. I play by ear and can improvise for long periods of time, blending song requests and appropriate improvised ideas into a non-stop background set. I read sheet music and can play a more traditional set of pre-chosen songs, and I have a prolific catalogue of original jazz, ballad, and sixties-style original songs for every mood. I am a singer, a guitarist, a saxophonist, a violist and a bassist as well as a pianist, so I have experience in a wide range of musical styles. I can also incorporate singing into my sets, and have a range of experience in singing while playing the guitar.

Jessie's Reviews

She is not only exceptionally skilled, but also a reliable and committed musician, who is capable of performing advanced repertoire (with irregular/changing metres and complex tonal accompaniment) whilst delivering a musically-stimulating performance.

I cannot fault her work ethic, her intelligent musicianship or her commitment and willingness to learn.
