Emily Saunders brings top international artists to The Voice Mix for an intimate Mix Unplugged evening of outstanding music.
Over the last decade Singer/Songwriter Elle Cato’s dynamic vocals have graced the stage with contemporary music greats Alfie Boe, Robbie Williams, Will Young, Lisa Stansfield and the UK super-band Incognito.
In 2016 she takes to the stage as a leader presenting an exciting, eclectic mix of rhythm & blues, jazz, pop oriented pieces. Her musical style spans eras, drawing inspiration from icons Ella Fitzgerald, Doris Day and the more contemporary Whitney Houston.
Tonight Elle Cato reinterprets original songs from her forthcoming album, along with some choice covers which have inspired her on this musical journey.
Emily Saunders has crafted masterful music that combines upbeat samba and Baião tunes, spirited grooves, driving basslines, sultry jazz ballads, with reflections of 60’s soul jazz, Brazilian vibes and playful textures that invokes sunshine and an invitation to dance.
Expect an extravaganza of soaring voices and driving grooves from Elle and Emily, along with the outstanding band ESB: International trumpeter Byron Wallen, “one of the most innovative, exciting and original trumpet players alive” – Jazzwise Magazine (Courtney Pine, Mica Paris, Loose Ends), Chris Jerome, piano (Courtney Pine, Mica Paris, Tom Jones), Paul Michael, bass (Julian Joseph and Liane Carroll) and George Hart, drums (Swing Out Sister, Ivo Neame).
