Imogen was born in London into a theatrical family, both parents were actors (her father was the late David Ryall) and her great uncle was Robert Eddison. She made her singing debut at the age of 17 at the Chichester Jazz Festival supporting Kathy Stobart and went on to study jazz at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama and whilst there, was lucky enough to study and work with the likes of Norma Winstone, John Taylor and Kenny Wheeler.

She soon became a regular performer on the London jazz scene and over the years has worked extensively both nationally and internationally including residencies at the Dorchester Hotel, London and for the Crown Plaza group in Seoul, Dubai and Oman and at venues closer to home such as the 606 Club, Jazz Café, Ronnie Scott’s and The Barbican Hall

Described as possessing “a very lovely voice indeed” by Jazz FM’s Sarah Ward, Imogen’s skillful improvising and her unique and heartfelt interpretations of the jazz standard repertoire have made her a popular performer with both audiences and musicians alike.

In 2014, Imogen began recording and performing with Mark Edwards’ band Cloggz at venues including The Old Market, Brighton; Watermill Jazz Club, the 606 Club and at Love Supreme, Cheltenham, Brighton and South Coast Jazz Festivals. They launched their debut album ‘Sawdust and Spangles’ in 2016 which reached No. 5 in the ITunes Jazz chart.
