Presenting...........
Lauren
Dalrymple
British-born Guyanese parentage, Lauren Dalrymple has been singing since the age of eight. As a teenager she undertook intense vocal training, and made a living as an in-demand backing vocalist before going solo in 1991 aged 19. Since then she's lent her immense vocal talents to the likes of Tomorrow's Warriors, Afro-Cuban All Stars, Zoe Rahman, and Keith Waithe, but is perhaps best known for her seven year writing and performing partnership with Latin-jazz pianist Alex Wilson.
A vibrant performer of lustrous textures and energy… she imparts her own soul-jazz flavour, and her rich vibrato is always pushing at the constraints of the pop-jazz techniques while holding the vibe. John Fordham, The Guardian.
Power, a goose-bump raising range, crystal diction, beautiful phrasing - Dalrymple has it all. She is also an impressive songsmith... as persuasive a debut as you could wish for.
Peter Quinn, Jazzwise
Copatstetic Debut Cd available on itunes and at amazon.com
