Zara McFarlane has created a unique show, journeying through the very special life and music of Sarah Vaughan, known to all as one of the jazz singing greats. She was more than that, being universally regarded by her contemporaries as a musician of the highest degree in what was probably the most exciting times in the annals of jazz.

There’s no better songstress to honour Vaughan than multi-award-winning singer-songwriter Zara McFarlane, known for her unique sound melding influences from jazz, reggae, folk and nu-soul.

The twice Jazz FM Vocalist Of The Year winner has led her band in festivals from British Summer Time, Field Day and BoomTown, to collaborations with Gregory Porter, Shabaka Hutchings, Moses Boyd, Ezra Collective, Osunlade and Dennis Bovell.

This event does not feature a performance by Sarah Vaughan. This event is not in association with Sarah Vaughan.

“A Jazz FM Award winning vocalist with her centenary celebration for Sarah Vaughn. Zara is guaranteed to perform a fresh arrangement showcased in a very entertaining show.”

Nigel Williams, Jazz FM Recommends 2024
