"Francesca's voice is a strong, expressive and supple instrument" UK Jazz News
"She brings such energy, drive and musicianship… it all works" – The Arts Desk
Francesca Confortini is an Italian-born, London-based jazz vocalist known for her expressive tone, rhythmic sensitivity and deeply communicative performances. Rooted in the jazz tradition yet shaped by influences from soul and Brazilian music, her work balances storytelling, groove and improvisation with a strong sense of identity.
A graduate of the Guildhall School of Music & Drama, Francesca has performed at leading venues including Ronnie Scott's, the Barbican and the 606 Club, as well as internationally across Europe and Asia. Alongside her work as a performer, she is an educator and Vocal Leader at ICMP London.
Her quartet brings together a group of highly regarded musicians from the London scene, creating a sound that is both intimate and dynamic. The music moves fluidly between reimagined standards, groove-led arrangements and original material, with a focus on interplay and spontaneity.
Joined by Chris Bland (piano), Jack Turnbull (electric bass) and Fabio Poian (drums), the quartet offers a fresh and engaging take on the small ensemble format, combining sensitivity, energy and musical depth.
Line up:
Francesca Confortini — vocals
Chris Bland — piano
Jack Turnbull — electric bass
Fabio Poian — drums
