Vintage Jazz Vocalist Ali

Named Best Jazz Vocalist in Scotland 2013 by the Scottish Jazz Federation, Ali has built a strong reputation as the go-to singer for genuine vintage jazz and blues. After living in the USA for 16 years and touring the country performing, she has gathered an impressive collection of jazz standards, along with some rare old Southern blues songs that are seldom heard outside New Orleans.

Her energetic performances are both sensitive and passionate, offering fresh interpretations while staying true to the essence of the songs. Whether performing solo or with a band, her repertoire includes a vibrant mix of 1920s to 1950s jazz, featuring popular standards and rare forgotten gems from early Billie Holiday, Peggy Lee, Fats Waller, Annette Hanshaw, and Ethel Waters. With frequent comparisons to June Christy and Peggy Lee, Ali’s authentic performances will bring a touch of sophistication and class to your event.
