Jazz, Blues & Country – The Opening concert of the season // January 6th – 13th, 2024

Emma Smith & Denny Ilett All Stars Jazz Band

Emma Smith & Denny Ilett All Stars Jazz Band (GB/ The Netherlands) will bring together the audience of “hot jazz” with different styles from the southern music of the USA and especially combinations of melancholy blues, soul that comes from the heart and of course bouncy swing!

Emma Smith’s star is on the ascendant. With diverse and extensive experience performing everywhere from the 02 Arena to the leading jazz clubs of New York City, collaborating and recording with the likes of Bobby McFerrin, Robbie Williams, Georgie Fame and Seal along the way, Emma Smith has created a formidable reputation as a powerful and expressive artist in UK jazz.

Emma Smith’s many accolades to date includes the widespread success of her long established vocal harmony group The Puppini Sisters, as well as a stint as a broadcaster on BBC Radio 3, not to mention a range of awards and compliments from organisations and critics alike, including winning the prestigious ‘Worshipful Company Of Musicians Medal. Now with the release of the new album and a series of live dates throughout the UK, Emma Smith will continue her rise to prominence as a multifaceted singer-songwriter with outstanding vocal ability – Meshuga Baby is set to become one of 2022’s stand out releases and an important addition to this year’s cultural diaspora.
