About


Karen and her fabulous musicians have worked together since 2005. They are reliable, friendly, smart and professional and always aim to provide the perfect musical backdrop to your event. 

Her band is a highly experienced Jazz trio featuring vocals, Piano & Double bass. Performing a style made up of easy listening favourites as sung by the fabulous Ella Fitzgerald & Billie Holiday, they specialise in performing at weddings, drinks receptions and dinners where the emphasis is on relaxing background music played at a reasonable volume so guests can hear themselves talk.

Previously they have performed at hundreds of events across the UK - most notably including Bettys Cafe Tea Rooms, The Lansdowne Club in Mayfair, and the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield. Karen’s memorable gigs to date were singing for a corporate event on a boat down the Thames and in the stunning surroundings of Eastnor Castle for a wedding. Supporting Clare Teal at the prestigious Sands Jazz Venue in Gainsborough was pretty special too!

Please note - prices quoted are for the trio. Duo and quintet prices also available on request.
