Trudy Kerr cd Launch at 606 Club

Trudy is renowned as one of the UK’s top jazz vocalists, regularly selling out shows at prestigious venues and festivals around Europe and her native Australia. Primarily performing gorgeous mainstream jazz with a bias towards bop, her highly skilled, nimble voice is a real pleasure to hear. With ten widely acclaimed albums to her name and a successful vocal teaching career, she is one of the scene’s busiest singers, and tonight she launches her latest, compilation CD, “Contemplation”, a sumptuous array of songs showcasing Trudy at her finest. Drawing upon material made famous by the likes of Chet Baker and John Coltrane, and classic standards such as “In a Sentimental Mood” the night will be one of superb quality, accompanied by her equally brilliant band, including pianist Andrea Vicari (known to 606 audiences as the leader of her own group, Jazz Ex-Temporé), saxophonist Ed Jones (Incognito, US3, Claire Martin, Jason Rebello, George Benson), bassist Geoff Gascoyne (Jamie Cullum, Georgie Fame) and drummer Seb de Krom (Jamie Cullum, Anthony Strong). Highly recommended....
