The Emily Masser Quintet: "Songs With My Father" Album Tour
Tickets: £16
"Young Vocalist Emily Masser is one of the most original and distinctive musicians to emerge on the current British scene" - Jazzwise. Joined by her father, saxophonist Dean Masser, the show features a mix of modern twists on jazz standards and highlights Emily's vocal approach to bebop.
"I'm sure this isn't the last we'll be hearing from Emily Masser – A burning talent for the future" – London Jazz News
"Masser makes her mark immediately skydiving into a hard- swinging scat, which is rich, timely and never without a smile" – Jazzwise
Emily Masser, is a 20-year-old jazz singer from Wigan, and currently studying at London's Guildhall School of Music. Besides the superb musical education she received at the famous Chetham's School of Music, Emily was also given invaluable mentorship by her father, respected saxophonist Dean Masser. Emily gained attention and approval from jazz luminaries. Her breakthrough however, came with The Clark Tracey Quintet's debut album, Introducing Emily Masser, showcasing her arrangements and vocals, and solidifying her reputation as a "new star of British jazz".
Emily is joined by her father Dean Masser on saxophone and an all-star rhythm section: in-demand Hungarian pianist Matyas Gayer (Eddie Henderson, Scott Hamilton), rising-star bassist James Owston (Xhosa Cole, Greg Abate), and ultra- swinging drummer Steve Brown (Scott Hamilton, Barry Harris). This band has recently recorded Songs With My Father, an album dedicated to Emily's late mother. The album features a mix of modern twists on jazz standards and also highlights Emily's vocal approach to bebop.
