A quirky addition to the UK Jazz scene, Zing draw on many different facets of the Jazz world, which includes Swing Jazz of the 40s, modern interpretations of Jazz vocal classics, expressive and rare Yiddish Swing hits as well as songs from the 30s, and from World War II.
Zing started in 2006 bringing their brand of Jewish Jazz and Yiddish Swing to Jewish and UK audiences at Leeds Jewish International Festival, Limmud days in Cambridge, Newcastle and Liverpool, as well as various Jazz venues around London and the South. Zing has also appeared at private parties and charity events.
Zing can put together bespoke sets, tailored to suit any kind of party, function, Wedding, Barmitzvah or concert setting. Some of our standard sets include:
* a dinner jazz set featuring songs performed by all the great singers from Ella Fitzgerald to Anita O'Day and Billy Holiday to Nina Simone
* a racy swing set to get your party sizzling and everyone up jitterbuging or Lindyhopping!
* an evening of Irving Berlin numbers,
* songs from World War II for an uplifting 1940s themed evening or event
* a mix of everything for a more varied programme.
With Laoise’s atmospheric voice recalling the Jazz singers of the 1920s, 30s and 40s while adding a modern twist, Ross Wall's characterful and fluid piano lead and accompaniment, and a thumping Bass from Paul Tkachenko, Zing will not just entertain you, but will make you reconsider the whole world of 20th Century Jazz from a different perspective.
“Inspiring performance from a talented group. A favourite with our audience.” Brian Posner, Newcastle Limmud
"Everyone here keeps sending me compliments on the evening and on your and ZING's performance." David Weitzman, Bournemouth (Charity event to support Israel Sport Centre for the Disabled)
Ideal for weddings or Bar Mitzvahs, cocktail parties or corporate events, Zing can provide background music, music to fill the dance floor or even a cabaret style performance.
We can provide everything you need to make your party swing. And we're always happy to perform your wish-list of favourite songs to make your occasion a truly unique and memorable one.
