About this Act
Working with some of the UK's finest musicians, Lorna Reid launched her album 'Gypsy In My Soul' (in 2008) to much acclaim. Featured on BBC Scotland's Jazz House, Radio Tay's 'Jazz Waves' and promoted by Music News Scotland as one of their "hottest albums of the year" the album reflects Lorna's range from kick-assSwing to late night Blues.
Lorna performs as part of a 4 piece band as standard but can also perform as part of a duo right up to a 6 piece band option.
Reviews...
"Your voice reminded me of the 1930 sultry starlette's..." Danie Cortese, (Danie Cortese Entertainment)
