Biography

'Parker is a bon vivant, a kittenish version of Madeleine Peyroux in love with the glamorous old world pleasures of cocktails, vampy femme fatales and indoor smoking, well aren't we all?' Jazzwise Oct 2007

Jane cut her musical teeth singing in the bars and drinking clubs of London's West End. Her lively repetoire of jazz and lounge classics extends from the begining of the last century right through to the present day.

Jane is is an experienced perfomer, has played at many venues, weddings and corporate functions and is always accompanied by top musicians from the London jazz scene. She can provide a line up to suit your requirements from a duo up to a five piece band.

Jane performs regularly at venues which include the 606 Club in Chelsea, Quaglinos in Mayfair and the Cafe de Paris in Piccadilly. Her recent cd 'A Whisper of Love, A Whisper of Hate'(available on-line from jazzcds.co.uk and cdbaby.com)has received air play on Smooth FM and Jazz FM

"The splendidly retro Jane Parker arrived in high heels and lacy little number to sing Sugar and The Man I Love, emoting a breathless wide-eyed devotion that recalled Marilyn Monroe in Some Like it Hot”
Jack Massarik Evening Standard Oct 2006

‘Jane Parker’s breathy vocals, reminiscent of Rickie Lee Jones or sometimes Billie Holliday are both sultry and steamy as the bayou itself’
Blueprint.
