Singer, broadcaster, songwriter and lover of a good tune.

From a childhood spent discovering Ella, Basie and Sinatra on her dad’s 78s to a career that has taken her from intimate jazz clubs to the Royal Albert Hall, Clare has always followed the music wherever it leads.

Across 22 albums, more than 20 years on the radio and countless live adventures, she has worked with extraordinary musicians, made records with everything from a single piano to 97 musicians playing in the same room, and built a musical world where swing, great songs, spontaneity and a good story are never far away.

These days there is as much going on as ever: touring, broadcasting every Sunday on Boom Light, digging into the archives and making new music with old friends and new collaborators.

There’s always another song to sing — and another idea bubbling away.
