Description
Debut album from exciting jazz vocalist Laura Collins, supported by a stellar UK band, including the excellent trumpeter Dick Pearce.
It's no wonder that, since turning professional a year ago, Laura Collins has been creating a huge buzz. A sophisticated singer with style and wit to boot, her work takes her around Britain, winning hearts and minds. She has performed with UK jazz greats including Bruce Adams, Alan Barnes, Andy Cleyndert and Dave Cottle. Laura's sound has been likened to the Norwegian singer Radka Toneff. Her main singing influences include Ella Fitzgerald, Annie Ross and Norma Winstone. What results is a magical blend of old and new.
Personnel: Laura Collins (vocals), Dick Pearce (trumpet & flugelhorn), Sam Dunn (guitar), Barry Green (piano), Jeremy Brown (bass), Matt Skelton (drums)
