Sally Street

Sally Street is a uniquely entertaining jazz and blues artist who was described as the “the ‘It Girl’ who has arrived on the Jazz scene” in a recent glowing review in the June 2007 edition of the Jazz Action Society magazine. The article recorded that “Sally Street takes us to naughty land...and offers memories of all the sassy gals, sirens and singers that were pure eye candy and made our ears prick up. There is nothing understated about Sally – it’s that wonderful Hollywood thing we loved when Rita Hayworth, Julie London, Peggy Lee, Marilyn and Eartha Kitt were strutting their stuff…..you know the femme fatale that offers the tease and then returns to her orchard – intact…Sally is a very relaxed performer who understands stagecraft and invited the audience to join in – which they did in great humour….She ‘IS’ her musical style and has plenty to give the audience with fun, twinkle and tongue in cheek. Watch this girl – she is full of surprises. The punters had very big smiles and some of the men had eyes that were glazed over with the feast of such glamour. Sally reminds us that life can be fun!”.Sally performs regularly in and around Sydney with her bands, consisting of the cream of the Sydney jazz scene: Bill Risby, Adrian Cunningham, Natalie Morrison and Andrew Dickeson. Sally has also appeared alongside Tom O'Halloran, Matt Baker, John Harkins, Col Nolan, Michael Bartolomei, Barney Wakeford, Will Poskitt, Ian Cooper, Hamish Stuart, Cameron Reid, Craig Walters, Mark Taylor, Sam Anning, Brett Hirst, Dave Pudney, Kevin Hailey, Ashley Turner, Gary Holgate, Owen Newcombe, Joe Marchisella, James Sherlock, Nielsen Gough, Greg Coffin, Monique Lisiak, Ed Gaston, Ken James, Warwick Alder and Darcy Wright.Sally has studied singing under some of Sydney’s jazz legends including Kerrie Biddell, Joy Yates and Steve Clisby. Sally started out mastering classical piano from age 4 which she went on to teach for many years. Sally also studied drama, classical ballet, tap and character dancing for over a decade in her youth and appeared on various childrens’ television programs.In essence, Sally Street puts the muse back into music and brings the razzle dazzle into the magical world of jazz.
