Fini Bearman

Fini Bearman is a London based singer, songwriter and composer whose music melds influences as diverse as Brazilian, Western Classical, modern jazz and contemporary music into an arresting and uniquely personal sound. Since releasing her debut album “Step Up” in 2011, Fini has been a busy presence on the London scene, performing with a variety of ensembles and working on various projects, including sharing the stage with the likes of Bobby McFerrin, Christine Tobin, Liane Carroll, Ian Shaw & Mica Paris. Fini has just released her second album 'Porgy & Bess Revisited'; exploring fresh and original arrangements of songs from the eponymous Gershwin opera, re-worked in a jazz-infused setting, on F-ire Records to considerable acclaim. For this 606 lunchtime performance Fini will be performing a mix of some swinging classic jazz standards along with her own, evocative, originals supported by a stellar line-up of pianist Tom Hewson, bassist Jon Cox and drummer John Bleaze.
