Lunchtime Special: Lauren Bush
“A…powerfully voiced…singer….quietly intense, deeply thoughtful and communicative”
London Jazz News
Canadian expat Lauren Bush relocated to London to pursue music on a new level a decade ago. Prior to that she had travelled extensively around North America notching up some impressive performance credits, including opening shows for Maynard Ferguson, performing at the Victoria International Jazz Festival (BC) and singing with Bobby McFerrin at the Idaho Jazz Festival. Following her move to the UK she released her debut album, 'All My Treasures' and was a Top 5 Finalist in the Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition. Today Lauren will be performing a fascinating collection of well-and-lesser-known Jazz standards, as she says "there will be songs from the past….but don't worry, there's always a heart-wrenching favourite thrown in for good measure!". Sounds fun.
"Lauren Bush has an easy on-stage manner and presence [with]….versatility and range. A…powerfully voiced…singer….quietly intense, deeply thoughtful and communicative" LondonJazzNews
