Luminoso: 3-2-1! ft. Special Guest Freddie Benedict

Join London-based jazz-pop band Luminoso for an exhilarating evening of music as they celebrate the release of their debut album, 3-2-1. Following performances across Europe, including a sold-out show at Istanbul’s renowned Nardis Jazz Club—and appearances at many of the UK’s leading jazz venues—Luminoso has quickly established itself on the international jazz scene.

Led by acclaimed pianist and composer Brian Clemens, alongside the charismatic Francesca Confortini—one of London’s premier jazz vocalists who has shared stages with legends like Cat Stevens and Rod Stewart—Luminoso combines playful cabaret flair with jazz artistry, leaving audiences humming their tunes for days. Echoing the timeless charm of the Great American Songbook with their own toe-tapping originals, their eclectic and energetic set also features reimagined pop and R&B favourites, vintage Italian swing, and more.

The evening also features special guest Freddie Benedict, joining Francesca for a series of duets, tight vocal harmonies, and a fiery encore.

 

                                                                         “Freddie’s mastery of his vocal instrument when it comes to an improvised solo is unparalleled amongst his peers.”                                                               -The Swingles
