Born to professional musicians who met and married in London (her father played guitar with Victor Feldman, Ralph Sharon, Jimmy Skidmore and Don Byas amongst others) Lily has been steeped in music her whole life, traveling the world from the tender age of two weeks with her parents as they sang and played their way through Europe, Asia and eventually Australia.
Returning to her roots, Lily has established herself as an in demand performer appearing at iconic London venues and festivals including Ronnie Scott’s, The 606 Club, Pizza Express Soho and Holborn, London Jazz Festival and Writtle Jazz Festival as well as Budapest Jazz Club.
With a band comprising some of London’s most in demand musicians Lily always takes her audience on a sonic adventure through her favourite soulful jazz and groove filled material.
Tonight Lily will be paying tribute to one of her favourite jazz singers and influences, the iconic Sarah Vaughan who’s sumptuous voice and vocal stylings set the jazz world on fire and redefined vocal jazz expression.
