With over twenty years' professional performance experience, including nine West End productions, Lydia returns to her first love—jazz. Bringing her distinctive vocals to London and the surrounding areas’ finest venues, weddings and private events, she delivers sophisticated performances inspired by the great jazz vocalists and the timeless melodies of the Great American Songbook. Renowned for her velvet voice and signature vintage style, Lydia brings elegance, warmth and a touch of old Hollywood glamour, creating the perfect atmosphere for every occasion. Lydia is accompanied by musicians she met while performing in West End shows, and together they bring a wealth of experience to their work. Available as a piano-and-vocal duo, or as a trio, quartet or quintet featuring bass, drums and/or brass, Lydia tailors each performance to the occasion, whether providing ambient background music or a captivating focal point for the evening.
