Louise Parker Trio
A big hit on the festival circuit and a regular on Radio 2’s Best of Jazz, this British vocalist combines a potent mix of funk, gospel, swing and blues with an effortless rhythmical style and a sweet, warm tone.
Louise Parker brings the spirit and passion of the great jazz divas to Port Eliot this year. Citing influences that include Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday, she has been enchanting audiences at venues and festivals around the UK including, Glastonbury Festival, The Isle of Wight International Jazz Festival and Plymouth Orange Music Festival among others.
“A splendid new voice on the block…. Swings like fury.”
Humphrey Lyttelton
“There’s no substitute for good time and tone… Tender or wild, her voice never lost its warmth and her phrasing had an in-built propulsion rarely heard from others.”
London Evening Standard ****
