Georgina Jackson began her musical career as a professional trumpet player, working for a number of years with many famous faces and big bands in concert halls, television and radio. However, as she describes it, “harbouring a desire to wear a posh frock” she decided that adding singing to her repertoire could be, well, fun.

These days her excellent swing jazz vocals can be heard in a variety of impressive settings, not least as featured vocalist with the BBC Big Band, the BBC Concert Orchestra and as regular singer with Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Orchestra. Her first CD was Jazz FM’s “CD of the Week” and the single “Change Partners” from her second CD, “Watch What Happens” shot to number 1 in the iTunes Jazz Chart with the album itself making it into the top 5.
