REVIEWS

"The sold out crowd swapped the right bank of the River Thames for the Left Bank of the Seine, sitting amongst the tables of a Parisian style cafe they were captivated by singer Airlie Scott. She transformed the Riverhouse Barn into the Années Folles, the rich social, artistic, and cultural melting pot that was Paris of 100 years ago."

"The Hot Jazz Vagabonds delighted the audience with French chanson, American Songbook standards & jazz gems. The highly effective rhythm section lent itself perfectly to the dramatic & talented vocal style of Airlie Scott”
