Jacqui Dankworth

Joyful, seductive, playful, sensual, delightful, passionate, enigmatic...Jacqui Dankworth always breathes her unique personality into her art. Whether she’s acting, singing, writing or just performing, there is something essentially Jacqui about whatever she does.

Rarely has Jacqui been in such high demand. She has toured with the Brodsky Quartet and recorded with them on their latest CD, alongside such guests as Sting, Elvis Costello, Bjork, Ian Shaw and Sir Paul McCartney. She featured on Courtney Pine’s album Devotion and sang alongside him at the Royal Festival Hall, as part of the London Jazz Festival.

Reaction to her second album for Candid Records, Detour Ahead was even more enthusiastic than for her first, including glowing reviews worldwide and a high rating by Mojo.
