**Winner BBC Jazz Awards 2005/6** “Parliamentary Jazz Awards Musician of The year 2008” The first artist ever to win two BBC Jazz Awards in the same year, for Best Vocalist and Best of Jazz, Liane is a dynamic vocalist and pianist whose amazing talent has been captivating audiences around the world. She is recognised as one of the finest singer/pianists on the scene, working with the likes of Gerry Rafferty, Ladysmith Black Mambazo and Paul McCartney, and has been a featured performer at Glastonbury Festival. Her albums have been received with universal acclaim and led to an hour-long special on BBC TV featuring her performance at the Brecon Jazz Festival. Her CDs “Up and Down” and “Ballads” on Quiet Money records, produced by Grammy-nominated trumpeter/producer James McMillan, garnered impressive reviews, “magical” (Guardian), “brilliant” (Observer) and her most recently released album "Seaside" on Linn Records has been variously described as "gorgeous" and "heartfelt". A world-class performer, her powerful blues-tinged voice combined with strong piano playing and exciting infectious material, not to mention a wicked sense of humour, make this a truly remarkable gig. Accompanying Liane tonight will be the wonderful Roger Carey on bass and Liane's Special Guest, the incomparable Spike Wells on drums.

“Liane Carroll...she seems in some magical way to be made out of music” The Observer;
“..swinging like hell one minute, brutally expressive and heartbreakingly tender the next….utterly brilliant” Time Out;
"A jazz force to be reckoned with…the real thing" The Independent;
“…world class” Guardian;
“…deeply soulful” The Times;
“…unswerving honesty and molten intensity…burningly expressive” Jazzwise
