Alice Harvey is available with her Jazz band in Birmingham, Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, Derbyshire, Staffordshire and other areas of the UK.Alice Harvey has a voice that is second to none and she really knows how to put a song across to an audience. Her singing is reminiscent of the great jazz singers of the past but her style remains original. Her main influences are Ella Fitzgerald, Dinah Washington, Peggy Lee and Nina Simone but she is also influenced by some of the more contemporary singers such as: Amy Winehouse, Norah Jone, and Diana Krall. Although Alice is influenced by these singers - her style remains unique. Alice Harvey's career in the music business has blossomed since her chance meeting and collaboration with jazz pianist Eugene Portman. They not only do events in Birmingham - but they will cover the entire UK. They frequently perform at weddings, private parties and corporate events in various line ups ranging from the duo format right up to a jazz band. The duo is quite simply Alice on vocals and Eugene Portman on piano but this line up is frequently augmented. So the biggest line up is a five piece jazz band, which will certainly make your event an event to be remembered.If you do book Alice and her jazz band for an event or party - they can provide recorded music during their breaks. This can really take the pressure off you by providing a full evenings entertainment rather than leaving big gaps without any music.Please visit Alice's site at http://www.the-jazz-singer.co.uk   Here are a few venues in Birmingham and beyond where Alice and her jazz band have performed.

Eugene Portman can be hired as a jazz pianist in Birmingham and any other area of the UK for any wedding, party or corporate event. Eugene Portman performs throughout the UK both as a solo jazz pianist and also with his trio. The Eugene Portman Trio consists of Eugene on piano , Dave Trigwell on Drums and Mike Porter Ward on bass. Whether Eugene is performing as a solo pianist or whether he is playing with his trio - you can be assured that the music is going to contribute to the event and will cetainly be entertaining.Eugene's style of piano playing is melodic and easy on the ear. His music consists of great tunes played in his own inimitable way and he has the ability to play music that that is just right for the occasion - matching the mood of the event perfectly. His influences are many but his main ones are: Oscar Peterson, George Shearing, Erroll Garner, Monty Alexander and the Dudley Moore Trio. He doesn't just mimic these musicians but he uses these influences to create a style of playing that is unique. As you may have gathered, Eugene's repertoire and style of jazz is not ultra modern and it seems to have a 'feel good' quality that makes it the ideal choice for events and parties. He plays tunes that people know and he adapts them to his own style of piano playing. Eugene mostly plays the great jazz standards from "The Great American Song Book" - but Eugene was classically trained so he can also play classical music. This makes him the ideal choice for wedding as he can play classical music for the ceremony, lively up tempo jazz for the drinks reception and a more layed back bluesy jazz during the meal. Eugene can provide a digital piano for venues where there is no piano. All the MP3s on his site were recorded on the digital piano that he would bring to the event. So his website at http://www.the-pianist.co.uk is well worth a visit. Here are some of the venues around the midlands where Eugene has performed both with his jazz trio and as a solo pianist: Gala Casino Birmingham, 84 Hill Street,  Birmingham,  West Midlands B5 4AHGala Casino Wolverhampton,  Whitmore Street, Wolverhampton, West Midlands WV1 1JSSingers Hill Synagogue, Ellis Street, Birmingham, West Midlands  B1 1HLThe Ikon Gallery, 1 Oozells Square, Blindleyplace, Birmingham, West Midlands B1 2HSArdencote Manor Hotel, Lye Green Road, Claverdon, Warwick, Warwickshire CV35 8LSEttington Park, Stratford on Avon, Warwickshire CV37 8BUCoors Visitor Centre (Bass Museum) Horninglow Street, Burton-on-Trent, Staffordshire.
