One of the most distinctive, original and creative jazz singers that the UK has produced, Ian Shaw is also a talented pianist, songwriter, actor, presenter and record producer.
Twice voted "Best Jazz Vocalist" at the prestigious BBC Jazz Awards, the recorded output of the London based singer and consummate showman includes three US releases. His solo shows and performances with his regular piano trio become ever more popular but he is also much in demand as the featured soloist with big bands and orchestras both in the UK and internationally.
Over the years he has collaborated with the likes of Quincy Jones, Van Morrison, Georgie Fame, Cleo Laine, Kenny Wheeler, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Nigel Kennedy, Kurt Elling and The Who's Pete Townsend and has toured with Abdullah Ibrahim, The Boston Pops and Cedar Walton.
“a brilliant vocal chameleon . . . there's actually more heart in Ian Shaw's cleverness than in many singers who wear their hearts conspicuously on their sleeves” (The Telegraph)
"One of the giants of British jazz... not only a wonderful singer and songwriter but an ambassador for jazz... an essential part of the scene." Jamie Cullum
