do any of these statements feel like 'you'?
- I want to be a jazz artist and need guidance to find my own voice and style
- I would flourish with regular support and encouragement
- I want to find ways to put my own unique stamp on jazz repertoire
- I want to get up at a jazz jam without worrying about making a 'mistake'
- I want to be able to swing like Ella Fitzgerald or Frank Sinatra
- I want to know how and why jazz singers sound so iconic
- I want to expand my repertoire so I'm not always singing the same standards
- I want to understand exactly how to communicate with the musicians on stage.
- I want to find an authentic jazz sound that is stylistically different to my previous training in Pop/Opera/MT
how can
help?
Using my knowledge from my own Masters in Jazz Performance, and experience touring the country with a jazz orchestra for the last 6 years, we'll work closely together on the essential elements of jazz singing such as swing feel and chord changes so you have all the context to deliver a jazz performance with authenticity.
I will guide you through essential listening, working on vocal styles, song interpretations and challenging your view of what your unique jazz voice can sound like, while paying homage to the jazz greats. Imitation and transcription will lead us towards finding your own identity.
I will equip you with the tools and confidence to step up and lead a band, offering practical knowledge on everything from intros and tempos to count-ins, keys, arranging, and actively listening to the band. This practical foundation will help you build connections in the scene and guide you in securing gigs.
