Nancy the Jazz Singer Solo Jazz singer, performing classic Jazz numbers from 1950's-current day

Because I am a stand alone performer I don't require much space, about 3 metres each way. I do require a plug socket.

I bring my own PA system but don't have a lighting rig.

I need to know any directions that will help me find the venue and find the right place to load in my equipment. We’d also need to be informed if there’s a sound limiter in the venue.

Yes, I'm happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between my sets. I'm happy to choose the music myself or let the client choose the music

I got the amazing opportunity to sing at a hotel in The Maldives for 3 months. I would sing on an island in the middle of the pool as the sun was setting. It was a brilliant adventure that I'll never forget!

Ella Fitzgerald and Nina Simone are iconic in my opinion and have changed the way I think about music forever. I definitely try and channel them into my performances.

I have been performing ever since I was about 3 years old, I started in Pantomimes and sang in a choir which gave me the most amazing opportunities to perform at venues such as The Royal Albert Hall and Birmingham Symphony Hall. I later moved onto musical theatre at the age of 13 where I featured in shows at The Chichester Festival Theatre. At about 18 years old I went on to study at The Brighton Institute of Modern Music where I developed a love for Jazz and writing my own music which I was lucky enough to perform at The Concorde 2. Ever since then I have been performing all over Brighton, Sussex and the world! And loving every minute of it!

I have to say I don't really have a favourite, it can sometimes be the least expected shows that turn out to be the best!

I normally like to arrive 40 minutes before performance starts to set everything up. The most requested time is 2 x 45 minute sets or 2 x 60 minute sets.

I'm happy to play outside but I ask for shade (cover incase of rain), a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area.

I encourage clients to customise their perfect set list from my repertoire, I do take requests for an extra fee of £10 per song. However requests can't always be guaranteed especially if the event is less than a month away.

When I speak to listeners after a show the most common thing they tell me is that 'they are transported to a memory' sometimes it brings tears to eyes and sometimes listeners are dancing and singing along.
