Reminiscent of
singers Jo Stafford, Helen Forrest, Doris Day with a
little Ella thrown in for good measure, you'll love the
sound and the entertainment that Helen and her musicians
can provide! Well known for her superb articulation,
Helen sings it as the composer and lyricist intended.
Helen performs with distinguished musicians such as
Digby Fairweather and his Half Dozen, Humphrey
Lyttelton, George Melly, Dave Green, Jimmy Hastings,
Kate Williams, Gunther Keuymer, Geoff Castle and Rod
Fogg.
Equally happy swinging with an 8 piece band, or
providing a more intimate feel with a quartet or duo,
Helen is a vivacious character, welcomed at top venues
including Pizza Express, Dean St, the Bull’s Head in
Barnes, the Spice of Life and various festivals and jazz
clubs across the UK.

A special show
dedicated to the memory of Ella Fitzgerald and the work
she did with brilliant jazz guitarist, Joe Pass has been
received with great acclaim!
Helen appears
regularly with Digby Fairweather and his Half Dozen and
recently has been asked to add a bit of glamour to a new
band for 2007:
The British Jazz Allstars
an 8 piece band made up of the very best British masters
– incorporating our own statesmen;
Digby Fairweather, Len Skeat, Nick Dawson, Pete Cater,
Mark Nightingale, Alan Barnes, Julian Marc Stringle and
Karen Sharp.
“It’s always nice
to draw attention to a fine voice”
Humphrey Lyttelton
