Nicky Schrire comes to the Pheasantry in Chelsea
One of South Africa’s leading jazz ingénues, Nicky Schrire is taking over London stages and will be coming to renowned music venue THE PHEASANTRY with her new band in September
Schooled at the University of Cape Town and at the prestigious Manhattan School of Music (under the guidance of Dave Liebman, Peter Eldridge and Theo Bleckmann), jazz vocalist Nicky Schrire is an award-winning performer and composer, who has played at venues in New York, Boston, Los Angeles, Ireland, London and South Africa.
London-born Nicky Schrire was raised in Cape Town, South Africa and has recently returned to live in London after studying and living in New York for five years. On 28 September, Nicky will be performing at the elegant Pheasantry in Chelsea, where her smooth vocals will complement the Italian menu and wine list.
Nicky’s debut album Freedom Flight was hailed as “an auspicious (if under-appreciated) debut” by JazzTime’s Christopher Loudon. Her sophomore release Space and Time featured some outstanding duets with pianists Gerald Clayton, Gil Goldstein and Fabian Almazan. Described as “50 minutes of emotionally eventful, richly crafted music” by the Ottawa Citizen, the album garnered Schrire comparisons to artists like Norma Winstone, Joni Mitchell, and Karryn Allison. The album release tour saw duo performances with pianists Josh Nelson (Natalie Cole), Nikki Iles, Huw Warren, Randy Porter (Diane Schuur), Mike Del Ferro, and Gerald Clayton. This was followed by the 2014 release of her all-originals EP To The Spring, which further established her as a “voice of great originality” (London Jazz).
Schrire’s musical teammates have included Ben Wendel (Kneebody), Taylor Eigsti, Dave Hamblett, Bokani Dyer, Borislav Petrov (Tin Men and the Telephone) and Shane Cooper in the past. She will make her “Jazz at Lincoln Centre” debut this coming October as part of Carnegie Hall’s UBUNTU Festival, which celebrates the music of South Africa with performances by Hugh Masakela, Vusi Mahlasela, Abdullah Ibrahim, and many more at venues across New York City.
Nicky is thrilled to be performing with a newly formed group for her performance at The Pheasantry. Along with Tom Hewson (piano), Matt Ridley (bass), Lloyd Haines (drums) and special guest Adam Waldmann (saxophone), she will share her original compositions, and arrangements of South African jazz repertoire, and always has some sonic surprises in store for music fans of all genres.
