Claire Martin has established herself as a tour de force on the UK jazz scene gaining many awards, including winning the British Jazz Awards as best vocalist eight times during her career which spans almost 4 decades.
Claire’s recent 2024 release ‘Almost in Your Arms’ (Stunt Records) saw a return to her collaboration with her Swedish trio led by the formidable Martin Sjöstedt on piano and produced by the 5-time Grammy nominated producer James McMillan. It was placed amongst the Albums of the Year critics poll at Jazzwise Magazine and also in their Editor’s Choice section and ‘Be-bop Spoken Here’ made it number 3 in their top 10 vocal albums of the year. Critic Andrew Cartmel effused “Almost in Your Arms is a ravishing album – adroit, surefooted and masterful. Jazz vocals – and songs – don’t come much better than this” (UK Jazz). The album toured the UK throughout the Autumn and was launched with a sell out club date at Ronnie Scott’s.
