Polly Gibbons is one of the most respected and talked about singers of her generation. Since first hitting the UK jazz scene more than 10 years ago, while still in her teens, Polly has developed into a consummate performer with a sultry, distinctive style, as much at home singing tender jazz ballads as she is performing rockin' R&B classics. She is also rapidly establishing herself in the US, with recent shows in Florida, Boston, Minneapolis, Kansas City, Oklahoma City, Los Angeles and Birdland in NYC. She released her critically acclaimed UK debut album "My Own Company" in 2014 and has followed this up with the recently released "Is It Me...?" (both on Resonance Records). The music is an eclectic mix of classic jazz standards, Groove-based tributes to the likes of Aretha Franklin and Donny Hathaway and several originals written by Polly and her musical director James Pearson (also featured this evening). Recently nominated Vocalist of the Year by Jazz FM, Polly is a special talent. Tonight she will be joined by some very Special Guests in a show that is guaranteed to both thrill and delight. A very old friend (Polly performed her first London gig here, back in the day) it’s with great pleasure that we welcome this remarkable singer and her band back to the 606.

“Polly Gibbons…a truly exceptional…talent, possessing a voice of such sizzling intensity and raw emotion you could fry an egg on it” Jazzwise; "There’s a rare sense of joy in her voice, not to mention a depth of….feeling….remarkable” Evening Standard
