Jazz in The Showbar – Zoë Schwarz & Rob Koral
Zoë Schwarz and Rob Koral are well known for their popular and established band Blue Commotion, which for over a decade has been one of the leading lights on the British Jazz and Blues scenes. However, they are equally at home in the more intimate duo format.
Expect a mix of classic jazz, blues, and roots standards, plus a carefully selected splattering of their self-penned songs, delivered with sophistication and panache. The communication between these two fine musicians will be evident for all to hear as one might expect after over twenty years of intense gigging together.
“Eye-catching vocals meet sumptuous guitar” – Guitarist Magazine
“Terrific musicians. Very nice indeed” – Paul Jones Rhythm & Blues, BBC Radio 2
“Recommended” – Jamie Cullum, BBC Radio2
“A perfect mix of head and heart” – Ronnie Scott’s Magazine
“Schwarz takes all that is good from Janis Joplin and Billie Holiday and makes it uniquely her own… together they create an edgy intimacy and bittersweet melancholy all delivered with an expert flair while still possessing the wild hair necessary for true authenticity.” – C.M. Bailey, All About Jazz USA
