Florence Joelles Kiss of Fire at The Jazz Department at The Fiddler's Elbow

Florence Joelle’s Kiss of Fire Live at the Jazz Department Wed 5th October
Ultra stylish London outfit perform live at the Jazz Department. The set includes original material from the band, new arrangements of classic recordings by Oscar Brown Junior, Chick Webb etc and tracks from the new album Kiss of Fire. One of the few bands that can comfortably perform jazz and blues with equal verve.

As a vocalist Miss Joelle has been likened to Earth Kitt, Billie Holiday, Peggy Lee and Edith Piaf. As a performer the charismatic Miss Joelle has elements of Tina Turner, Little Richard, Cat Woman (circa. the 1960s). However Miss Joelle’s style is entirely her own. The shows are always unforgetable with the groovey guitar work of Chris Campion, the hypnotic drums and percussion from Arthur Lager and then there is the intricate guitar riffs from cult film director Huck Whitney. Not forgetting Florence Joelle on guitar, harmonica and of course vocals....
