Growing up in a musical family she quickly embraced the music of Judy Garland and Ella Fitzgerald, developing her unique style that has won BBC Jazz Awards Best Vocalist and a 6-times winner of best singer at the British Jazz Awards, and her OBE in 2011

Her performing credits span Europe, Asia and the USA appearing at New York's Lincoln Centre. Her 18 albums for Linn records are must haves in any collection.

“Claire Martin is a relaxed, funny & charismatic occupant of a spotlight’s beam”-The Guardian

Joe Stilgoe is a man of many talents. He is a pianist and occasional drummer, a jazz musician and a singer. He is an actor, a comedian, a star of stage - most recently in High Society at The Old Vic - and small screen. He has a way with a familiar style of music that he somehow makes sound new, fresh, and vibrant.

He is a stalwart of the live circuit, and a perennially hot ticket. He plays locally, and internationally. He's made albums, the second of which, 2012’s We Look to the Stars, went to number one in Amazon's jazz chart. His most recent album "New Songs for Old Souls" is his best yet.

"Joe Stilgoe is dapper, handsome and quick witted and gifted with dazzling digits"- The Times

"These two are simply world class" - Sir Richard Rodney Bennett

"Utterly assured" - The Times
