Event information

International renowned and critically acclaimed vocalist, composer, and broadcaster, Emily Saunders takes the stage by storm, leading an exceptional band of stellar musicians through her original songs. As a socially conscious wordsmith, many of her songs reflect on society, the fragility of people and the strength of connectivity, establishing her not only as a rhythmically inventive jazz vocalist, but a supremely talented songwriter. Her latin-infused, hip swaying groove ooze hazy sunshiny days and hot sultry nights, with driving baselines, splashes of spoken word, and edges of drum ’n bass ("UK’s Queen of Jazz Fusion” Snowboy) pronounce Saunders as “one for the dance jazz clubs” (Gilles Peterson BBC radio 6).

Joining Emily in ESB are: Byron Wallen - Trumpet; Chris Jerome - Keys; Paul Michael - Bass; Eric Ford - Drums
