Nu Jazz star Natalie Williams will be making her first appearance at the Apartment in Swindon early next month where she will perform three songs from her due to be released third album, entitled 'Secret Gardens'.
Though just 25, Natalie has already released two albums, of two different genres - the first a unique combination of soulful RnB and Hip Hop and the second a live version of classical jazz, both receiving critical acclaim. Brought up on jazz in West Berlin and trained by some of the biggest names from the RnB scene in America and the UK, including Mark Hill from 'The Artful Dodger', Natalie’s third album will bring together elements from both styles. Since we last heard from her two years ago, Natalie has been kept busy with performances at the Montreux Jazz Festival alongside the Heritage Orchestra, Flight 5065 London Eye gig and the John Legend, Nelson Mandela Tribute at Hammersmith Palais. You can hear Natalie singing live in Room 1 at the Apartment in Swindon as part of the Urban Affair line up on Friday 7th October where she will be supported by DJ Chris Tempo & Vinz M, Room2: Nick Smoove and Mark Nicholas. Doors are open from 7pm-2am and tickets bought on the door cost £4 before 11pm and £5 after. |
