Emily Saunders: Moon Shifts Oceans @ Colchester Arts Centre
Dubbed “UK’s queen of jazz-fusion”, critically acclaimed vocalist, songwriter and producer, Emily Saunders takes any stage by storm leading an exceptional band of stellar musicians through her spellbinding set of original songs.
“A real powerhouse” (Simon Phillips Jazz FM).
A prolific and supremely talented songwriter, Emily launches her most powerful work to date, the much-anticipated new album Moon Shifts Oceans – creating her heady mix: future-jazz inspired, melodic hooky basslines, riffs, edges of broken beat, and Brazilian-infused grooves.
At the core of Emily’s music is her soaring, enchanting voice, which playfully dances over her infectious tunes and bold music-production, all with an irresistibly catchy pop sensibility – effortlessly weaving its way into the listener’s soul.
