Lorraine & The Flames is a new 5 piece Jazz Band, comprising of Lorraine Heavey on lead vocals, Rob Webb on keyboards, Pete Roth on electric guitar, Mike Pratt on double bass and John E Martin on drums. Together they make a wonderfully mellow, easy-listening sound, whether delivering a rendition of the old world or contemporary jazz. Lorraine Heavey – Lead Vocalist Lorraine has star quality. She has honed her sound into a smooth and soulful blend of jazz with a distinct Celtic flavour - a nod to her Irish roots, where she performed on stage and national television. A chance meeting with her idol Barbra Streisand in Italy a couple of years ago was the spark that rekindled Lorraine's drive to reconnect and focus once again on her own passion for music after raising three children. Rob Webb – MD Keyboards Robert, originally, trained classically, but in his teens, he grew a passion for Pop, Soul, and Jazz music. He has played and recorded for many artists such as Cliff Richard, The Supremes, Kim Wilde and Rietta Austin. Pete Roth – Guitar Pete is a signed artist to MGP records. He has performed with prestigious international artists like Alec Dankworth, Vasilis Xenopolis, Laurance Cottle, Rob Fowler, Steve Vintner, Brian Dee, Rosemary Squires (Sammy Davis Junior, Les Paul) The London Gala Orchestra, Teatro, Maria Friedmann (Stephen Sondheim, Michael Legrand), Nick Meier (Jeff Beck group), Giorgio Serci (Naim, Antonio Fortione), Bill Bruford, Tim Sanders (Eric Clapton, The Who), Sam Flynn (Roachford, Eurythmics, Steve Wonder), Terl Bryant (John Paul Jones) among many others. He has participated in many festivals and lectured guitar at several universities, recently opened Roth Academy for high-end guitar performance sessions in a modern blended learning environment and he has written the Q&A section for total Guitar Magazine (2000) Mike Platt – Bass, Double Bass, composer, and producer Mike is based in London. He has recently written and performed with country artist and TV presenter Laura Evans, West End musical star Oliver Tompsett, and 90's soul band Curiosity Killed the Cat. He is the musical director for the live theatre rockumentary Seven Decades which recently ran at the V&A. Mike is currently producing songs for Jamie Johnson, semi-finalist of The Voice. On the London jazz scene, Mike has performed with Acantha Lang, Dave O'Higgins and Liane Carroll, and at venues including Ronnie Scott's, The Jazz Cafe, the Royal Albert Hall and the Cape Town Jazz Festival. John Martin – Drums John studied for four years at the National Academy of Rudimentary Drummers of Australia, under the highly renowned tutor Harry Lebler. He is also an accomplished player of a range of percussion instruments. Over a period extending more than five decades John has performed internationally with numerous jazz, fusion, soul and rock groups in some thirty countries around the world. He recently completed a six-year stint with Asian band Graveyard Shift based in Singapore.

We had a great evening with Lorraine & The Flames at The Pheasantry. Really interesting and varied selection of classics and some lesser-known songs, all performed beautifully by Lorraine and her band. The quality of Lorraine's voice alongside a clearly very accomplished band displaying great timing, rhythm, and hand-offs, made for a fabulous evening. Looking forward to future gigs!
