Sutton Coldfield Jazz Nights – Lydia Rae Duo

The Lydia Rae Duo  – Songs from the Shows

Lydia Rae – Vocalist

Ben Lawrence – Piano

Combining a shared love of golden age musicals and tunes from the Great American Songbook, Lydia and Ben bring a varied set of their favourite show tunes and ballads from the 1930s to present day. Meeting through the UK jazz scene and developing their sound together through various ensembles, their musical styles complement each other to such an extent that they branched off to form a duo.

“A promising singer-pianist partnership in the making” ~ Russell Corbett
