CLARE Teal and her Big Mini Big Band will perform their latest shows Swing’s The Thing in Leeds.

The Kildwick-born jazz queen can be seen on June 30 at Leeds Town Hall with her energetic nine-piece ensemble playing the best of the Great American Songbook.

She promises a performance with virtuosity, authenticity and panache as she effortlessly traverses a rich landscape of timeless and sparkling material.

There will be standards from the grand masters of the Great American Songbook from from Cole Porter and Rodgers & Hart to witty and urbane song stylists of the 50s and 60s like Cy Coleman, Carolyn Leigh and Dave Brubeck.

Clare has built her ensemble to demonstrate the thrill and power of the big band age, packing it with fantastic jazz players capable of taking flight at any given moment.

This band is said to give a great backdrop for Clare to communicate her eclectic songbook of intimate ballads, roaring blues, sophisticated swing and fiery Latin tunes.

With arrangements by world renowned trumpeter and composer Guy Barker and jazz pianist extraordinaire Jason Rebello, songs include Cry Me A River, Take Five, What Is This Thing Called Love, I Wish You Love, I’ll Take Romance, It Don’t Mean A Thing If It Ain’t Got That Swing, How Long Has This Been Going On, Perfidia, and There’ll Be A Hot Time In The Old Town Tonight.
