AWAITING REVIEWS FOR 'COMING HOME'...

CHECK OUT REVIEWS FOR 'ROUND MIDNIGHT' ALBUM BELOW...

Hailing from Wigan, Alexandra is a young, mainstream jazz vocalist who has built and enviable reputation in her native north-west. This album contains a solid blend of classics ('Is You Is, Or Is You Ain't', 'Georgia') with contemporary covers (Elvis Costello's 'Baby Plays Around'). Supported by classy professionals such as Vinny Parker (keys) and Edd Kainyek (sax), Alexandra displays a melodic touch with a wide range of songs and, as her moving version of Joni Mitchell's 'A Case Of You' highlights, she may score radio success with suitable originals in a similar vein. Promising.

The Journal of the Musicians' Union

Alex has a unique sound but can deliver virtually every style across the musical spectrum, and has a great feel for swing, having studied the work of jazz divas like Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan and Billie Holiday. I particularly enjoy her delivery of ballads, which emphasises the haunting quality of her voice. Recently Alexandra went into the studio with four of the North West’s best musicians – Vinny Parker (keyboards), Frank Grimme (bass), Tim Franks (drums) and Edd Kainyek (sax) – and the resultant CD, ‘Round Midnight’, showcases her vocal range on a collection of mostly well-known numbers.’

What a delightful debut last time out, such poise and stage presence and some fine interpretations of timeless jazz standards as well as refreshingly upbeat soulful repertoire. Making her way in the music world she invites you in from the very first song, and just doesn't let go. Alex is surrounded by superb musicians yet she shines through.
