Eileen Hunter at 606 Club

Eileen is not only a wonderful vocalist with a lovely, breathy delivery but also a highly accomplished musician, being fluent on both piano and flute. She performs a mix of jazz standards and swinging originals in an assured and fluent style, and has worked at venues including the Royal Albert Hall, Regents Park Open Air Theatre and of course the 606, where she was a regular for many years (though not so much lately as she is now married to Steve Brookstein, the X Factor winner, and a mother to two children). Signed to Jive Records in 2003, just prior to the label’s acquisition by BMG, her first CD “I Miss the Sky” was finally completed and released through radio station Jazz FM in 2009, who received the album as a demo and were so impressed they decided to put it out on their own imprint, Clifford Street Records. Currently, Eileen is most often heard in a duo format with husband Steve, but this afternoon she’s making a rare appearance leading her own band, featuring Luca Boscagin on guitar for what we can guarantee will be a wonderful gig. And if you're lucky her old man might just join her for a couple of numbers as well!...
