Born in South America and raised in Sweden, Annika is a highly celebrated multilingual jazz vocalist with a natural talent. She brings a special blend of Scandinavian charm and Latin flavour to her performances and is a firm favourite on the jazz scene here in the South West.
She has put together a fine stellar band with some of the very best musicians here in the South West and will be joined by Tom Ball – pianist, John Donnelly– double bass and Dennis Harris – drums. Join them in their celebration of the great American Songbook where Annika takes a look at some of her absolute favourite jazz standards written by legendary musicians and composers. Expect to hear songs by Dave Brubeck, Burt Bacharach, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Bill Evans, Miles Davies, Hoagy Carmichael, Richard Rodgers, Charles Parker to name but a few. This promises to be a great evening, don’t miss it!
