Grammy-nominated singer Stacey Kent has become an essential feature of the international jazz scene. Her delicate, darting, slightly girlish voice is a very precise instrument, navigating her shimmering Latin melodies with nonchalant ease, but projecting a complex musical personality, the carefree surface not completely concealing a poignant sense of loss.

Kent’s influences are defiantly cosmopolitan. Brought up in New England, she still sings with a light east-coast accent, but she now lives in Britain. Her biggest audiences are in France and Germany, and for her latest show, she’s singing mainly Brazilian and Latin-themed tunes, with a hint, also, of the Portuguese saudade, a traditional form that combines a happy surface with darker depths.

She works with her musician husband Jim Tomlinson, who writes her music, and plays guitar, reeds and flute. For her latest album, they are joined, as lyricist, by the novelist Kazuo Ishiguro, who adds his characteristic intrigue and subtle menace. These pieces are perfectly balanced by the authentic Brazilian repertoire of Jobim and Gilberto.

Wistful, charming, and that irresistible mix of vulnerable and seductive, Stacey Kent’s appearances in an intimate venue like Ronnie’s sell out fast. Book now.

    What the critics say

    VENUE

    The UK’s best known jazz club, Ronnie Scott’s in Soho is decked out like US venues of old, with plush seating, booths and brass rails. A must for any jazz fan, it’s the perfect setting in which to watch the great and good of the jazz world do their stuff. As you’d expect from a jazz club of its calibre, Ronnie Scott’s keeps a well stocked bar and does an excellent line in cocktails. The espresso martini is legendary and a godsend in the early hours of the morning

What members say

    Stacey Kent's minimalist and bright voice was for me a live revelation. It works even better than on recording. Lovely duet with husband and producer Jim Read more

    One word: chops. Blacklock is a carnivorous den in the middle of soho. The finest chops - lamb, pork, beef are sourced from a single farm, run by the Warren family in Cornwall. All the chops are cooked to pink perfection over a charcoal grill, using a blacklock iron from which the restaurant gets it name.
