"Genevieve has a musical and vocal talent beyond her years" - Ian Mackenzie"From the opening of this set of tunes, you become aware of Genevieve's warm tone and lovely sense of phrasing. No vocal affectations and an honest and direct approach to music.
It's a very inspired pairing with Wayne on trumpet who plays very beautifully behind her and in his own right - never intruding but playing directly out of the context of the music. A band to watch!" - Nikki Iles.Genevieve has been singing in a variety of styles for over 15 years. She began in the Voice Squad vocal ensemble based in Bury St Edmunds .They played throughout the country and appeared at the Queen Elizabeth and Albert Halls. She then studied classical singing at The Royal Academy of Music for four years and sang solos at The Academy of St Martins in the Field London and St Patricks Cathedral in New York before deciding that she wanted to perform a broader repertoire.
Her completion of the Jazz Foundation course at Trinity College of Music London confirmed Jazz as her chosen path, and now at the age of 23, she is a second year student at Middlesex University completing a three year Hons degree course in Jazz.
Genevieves teachers at Middlesex include Iain Mackenzie and Nikki Isles and she has recently formed a quintet which is influenced amongst others, by Ella Fitzgerald, Diana Krall, and Sarah Vaughan.
