Bio
Charlie + Jake are a Bristol-based vocal and piano/double bass duo combining soulful originals with well loved jazz standards. Mixing powerful vocals with melodic improvisations they share stories of love, friendship and sense of place.
Both studied at Royal Holloway University of London; here Charlie trained as a classical singer but since then has been pursuing her passion for jazz. Charlie has been singing with big bands for the past four years. Since graduating in 2015 she has been taught by Laurie Holloway, Becki Biggins, Ruth Royall, Victoria Klewin and Beth Rowley. Jake studied creative sound design and is passionate about exploring new ways of incorporating found sounds and mixed soundscapes into their jazz compositions. Charlie + Jake’s latest project has involved collaborating with a group of Bristol poets, transforming their work into poetry-jazz fusions. The project is called Echoes and Edges and is testament to Charlie + Jake’s experimental approach to making music.
