LONDON: Jazzlive at The Crypt

Friday 27th September, 2024

8:00pm

Event information

One of our favourite vocalists is back at The Crypt with her brilliant quartet.

Voted Best Vocalist in the British Jazz Awards 2019, Sara Dowling is gaining fame as one of the most talented jazz singers around. She first trained as a cellist at Chetham’s and the RNCM, before emerging as a powerful and expressive jazz vocalist and composer. Her most important influences are Betty Carter and Sarah Vaughan.

Although her vocal approach is steeped in the jazz idiom and its repertoire, Sara is now coming forth with her own original sound that resonates in her compositions as well as her unique approach to standards.

For tonight's concert Sara is joined by the incredible Dario Di Lecce on bass, Steve Brown on drums and Mátyás Gayer on piano.

“Rarely does a jazz singer grace our scene with such breathtaking authenticity and natural flair. Dowling is this thing.” - IAN SHAW
