About
An expat Australian singer now settled in London, Lily comes with an impressive and extensive cv. The daughter of professional musicians, Lily spent her first five years touring the world before finally settling in Australia. Her debut album ‘Invitation’ received universal praise and put Lily firmly on the Australian music map. "She can belt out a song, dramatize a lyric, swing hard and earthy, flirt, sing a tender song - Lily can tell a story" ABC. In what is now an extensive and highly respected career Lily is recognised as one of Australia’s foremost vocalists, performing at major festivals and venues in Australia and around the world, including performances in the likes of New York, New Zealand, Japan, Singapore, Shanghai, Hong Kong and of course London. She has shared the stage with a who’s who of world-class musicians including Oscar Castro Neves, Dale Barlow and James Morrison and includes numerous TV and Radio appearances as well as hosting her own show on Sydney’s premier jazz station ‘Eastside Radio’ for over ten years. The music tonight will be classic “Groove” orientated material with some of her own excellent groove originals and some choice jazz standards from Lily’s latest CD, “Let’s Talk About It”, all performed with Lily’s trademark powerful and charismatic vocals. Also featured tonight will be Lily’s outstanding band, including famed UK saxophonist Paul Booth and the brilliant pianist Tim Lapthorn, along with Geoff Gascoyne-bass and Rod Youngs-drums....
