Profile
 
With four albums of original material to her name, Fiona has made countless appearances on Welsh language television and radio. Fiona has travelled the world singing and playing the piano, working in places such as The Middle East, Scandinavia and for five years, she was the resident singer/pianist on board P&O’s legendary liner, the SS Canberra.

The FAB Jazz Quartet formed in September 2003 and they have been the resident jazz quartet at Newbury Manor ever since, entertaining audiences at the monthly ‘Jazz at the Manor’ evenings. They recorded their first album ‘New Life’ in October 2004 and are donating all the proceeds to a Newbury based charity for disabled children. From Ellington to Gershwin, from Cole Porter to Fiona’s own original songs, they are able to augment the sound for larger functions by adding a sax player or guitarist.

A typical performance would be 3 x 45 minute sets for an evening function with pre-recorded music during the breaks where appropriate. PA and lighting is provided for events with up to 200 guests.

Line up & Options:
Piano, bass, drums, female vocals
Optional saxophone and guitar
 
     
Testimonials

"Nicky and I would like to say a really big thank you to you and your trio for what can only be described as a ‘FAB’ evening’s entertainment at our wedding reception. We have received so many compliments from wedding guests for both our choice of venue and music for the day. Having been a keen jazz fan for a number of years, I was really looking forward to having live music at the wedding. You and your trio gave us a night of fantastic jazz music, thanks so much for learning those Stacey Kent numbers in such a short period of time they were greatly appreciated .. we were delighted to see so many people of all different ages dancing and enjoying themselves, having been to weddings where a DJ is playing naff music really loud and no one is dancing. Seeing everyone having such a good time made it a very special evening for us both."
Peter and Nicky Sturt

“As well as covering well-loved classics, Fiona also performs her own numbers. She is a brilliant entertainer, engaging her audience and creating a memorable atmosphere. The highly professional and chic style of the quartet is in keeping with our hotel’s high standards and Fiona has gathered a regular following for these evenings, all of whom thoroughly enjoy her performances.”

Repertoire  
  Cry me a river
My funny valentine
Blue moon
Unforgettable
When I fall in love
Just the way you look tonight
When sunny gets blue
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
Summertime
Every time we say goodbye
Someone to watch over me
Autumn leaves
Smile (though your heart is aching)
Embraceable you
The very thought of you
Can’t help lovin’ that man of mine
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered
That ole’ devil called love
The nearness of you
What are you doing the rest of your life?
Embraceable you
Somewhere over the rainbow
Girl from Ipanema
One note samba
So nice
Wave
This masquerade
I’ve got you under my skin
So in love
Night and day
Almost like being in love
Goody goody
Route 66
This can’t be love
L.o.v.e.
S’wonderful
Orange coloured sky
You make me feel so young
Recipe for making love
Let’s face the music and dance
They can't take that away from me
The lady is a tramp
Let there be love
A foggy day
Bad, bad Leroy Brown
The second time around
Don’t get around much any more
Let’s do it (let’s fall in love)
Straighten up and fly right
Our love is here to stay
Paper moon
Somebody loves me
My baby just cares for me
Mame
Fever
My secret love
Nobody does it like me
I wish I were in love again
My heart stood still
It’s all right with me
Shall we dance?
Lullaby of birdland
Fly me to the moon
Slow boat to China
Always true to you darlin’ in my fashion
You’re the top
