About / Biography

I'm a professional jazz singer with 20 years of international experience, currently living in Barcelona.

I have performed in five star hotels, restaurants, clubs and private events, singing in english, spanish, portuguese, french and italian.

I can work as a duo (with a pianist), a trio (plus bassist) or a quartet (plus drummer), performing from jazz classics and bossanova to popular hits in a jazzy style.

We usually go through the repertoire with our clients and we can prepare special requests songs and dedications throughout the event.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

Best gig: Singing at my best friend's wedding in a gorgeous vineyard in central Chile.
Best venue: I worked for 6 months as a singer at Marriot Nagoya Hotel, Japan, at the restaurant on the 52nd floor. The view was amazing!


What's your favourite type of event?

We enjoy performing at all sorts of events but weddings are our favourite, love is in the air!


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I started gigging when i was studying jazz at Barcelona and from there I've been lucky enough to perform in places as far away as Punta Arenas, Chile; HochiMinh City, Vietnam; or Brisbane, Australia.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

As a singer, I have many influences, from Ella Fitzgerald to Tori Amos, and from Stevie Wonder to Elis Regina.
It's hard to pick just one song, but I'll say "Overjoyed" by Stevie Wonder, "The Girl from Ipanema" by Tom Jobim and "Gracias a la Vida" by Violeta Parra


Can you sing a song in another language?

Yes, I can sing in Spanish, Catalan, Portuguese, French, Italian and English.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

We normally arrive 2 hours before the performance to set up. We normally perform 1 x 60 minutes or 2 x 45 minute sets. We’re happy to play a bit longer or shorter but we’ve found that these set times suit us and our audiences best.


Are you happy to perform outside?

We’re happy to play outside but we ask for shade, a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

We can learn specific songs before the event but we usually limit this to 3 songs. The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Classy, elegant and charming.
