Lulu Pierre and The Alex Webb Trio

Lulu Pierre is a startling new arrival on the London jazz vocal scene, who has proved herself to be a classic Torch Song stylist in the tradition of Nancy Wilson. She can also swing out like Sarah Vaughan, with a voice that can move from a seductive sweetness to a lived-in rasp. With the experienced piano accompanist Alex Webb and his trio, she performs evergreens from the Great American Songbook, heartbreaking Torch songs and some surprising non-jazz repertoire choices.

Webb is a pianist, arranger and songwriter with a long history of working with leading jazz vocalists; his songs have been recorded by Liane Carroll, China Moses, Jo Harrop, Allan Harris, Cherise, Ayanna Witter-Johnson and many others.

Lulu Pierre is a name to remember, a dazzling new vocal star in the UK jazz firmament.

‘Something new and exciting … Alex Webb’s fantastic arrangements allowed Lulu the space to make a clear statement – she has arrived’ – Jazz in Europe
