Fabienne Ambuehl is a Swiss pianist, singer and composer based in London. Together with her band she brings the music of the new album “Thrive”, released earlier this year on Ubuntu Records, to 1000 Trades. Her lyrical jazz takes the listener from the calm of mountain landscapes deep into the buzz of city life. The compositions have a striking energy and dynamism, while also painting details with a subtle brush. Ambuehl’s vocals sweep across wide emotional terrain, using her own lyrics as well as poems by Emily Dickinson, D.H. Lawrence and others. Expect an evening of compelling rhythms and evocative songs – contemporary folk-tinged jazz.

Line Up: Fabienne Ambuehl – piano/vocals, Tom Ollendorff – guitar, Matt Ridley – bass & Jon Scott – drums
