Jeremy Sassoon is one of the UK’s most in-demand singer/pianist. Either solo or accompanied by his band, he captivates audiences with his natural, soulful voice, his charismatic personality and his arrangements of jazz, blues, groove, and soul classics.
Jeremy has headlined sell-out shows at Ronnie Scotts, Pizza Express Soho, the 606 Club and the Jazz Café. He has performed at the North Sea Jazz Festival, The Iridium Jazz Club in New York and headlines twice a year at Berlin’s premier jazz club The “A Trane”. In 2014, his version of the beautiful Marc Cohn song “The Things We’ve Handed Down” was featured on BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs as the castaway’s favourite and then hit number 1 in the iTunes vocal download chart.
Expect tunes from Ray Charles, Bruce Hornsby, Nina Simone and more.
Line-up: Jeremy Sassoon vocals/piano, Jim Corry tenor sax, Chris Rabbitts bass, Phil Johnson drums.
