Juliet Kelly

Hotly tipped by critics as "one to watch", this UK jazz singer and songwriter's debut album, Aphrodite's Child attracted widespread critical acclaim from jazz professionals both in her native UK and in the US as well as enthusiastic responses from audiences on her recent UK tours. Her songwriting has also been widely praised and she took honours in the jazz category of the 2004 International Songwriting Competition (judged by Brandford Marsalis).

In 2005 Juliet recorded her second album Delicious Chemistry. It's a collection of her newest songs that further showcase her talent for writing laid-back accessible jazz with their subtle grooves, lilting melodies and simple but quirky harmonies. Juliet's sensual, velvety vocals and jazz phrasing (reminiscent of the original jazz divas) are sometimes described as a cross between Sade, Norah Jones and Cassandra Wilson but Juliet has developed her own distinctive style that needs no classification.
