Jazz vocalist

Andrea has been singing professionally for eight years.  Based in London, and working with some of the finest jazz instrumentalists in the UK,  she now performs at jazz venues, restaurants, bars, private parties and corporate functions all over the country.  In 2008,  she also had a two-month residency at the five-star G Hotel in Penang, Malaysia.
