Polly Gibbons has forged a successful career on the international jazz circuit spanning two decades. Polly has been twice-nominated as “Best Jazz Vocalist” by the BBC and Jazz FM and compared to a female version of Gregory Porter by US magazine Downbeat.While an accomplished jazz artist, Polly’s musical influences as a vocalist and composer began in childhood with roots in blues, soul, gospel and R&B – so much so that The Sunday Times described her jazz vocals as “vintage R&B with shades of Aretha Franklin”.
She has performed at London’s Royal Albert Hall opening for George Benson and Gladys Knight, and had a residency at New York’s legendary Birdland Jazz Club and in London she is a regular at Ronnie Scott’s.
JAMES PEARSON is a pianist, composer and creative tour de force. He is probably best known for his association with Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club, where he has been the house pianist and artistic director for over 14 years. His powerful, swinging playing has been heard in an astonishing variety of settings and his ‘musical portraits’ of pianists Oscar Peterson, George Shearing, Erroll Garner and Dudley Moore, all of whom have influenced James’s own style, are legendary.
