YolanDa Brown ANNOUNCES UK TOUR DATES May –Nov 2014 Feb-March 2015
“Brown remains both an influential role model, and a skilful artist with a future”. John Fordham – Guardian
- “Yolanda Brown – sax appeal” Independent
- “Bright young saxophone talent – sounding somewhere between Stan Getz and Courtney Pine (minus the showboating chops)”– Time Out
Award winning double MOBO Winner – YolanDa Brown – has been described as the UK’s most exciting jazz talent. Not only is YolanDa the UK’s premier saxophonist – she is as much an entrepreneur as she is a musician.
YolanDa has recently teamed up with the University Of East London to create a new music award for students offering four grants to their Music Students . She has a long-standing connection with UEL and was awarded an honorary doctorate in 2010.
YolanDa is proud to announce a 22 date nationwide tour – May 2014-March 2015. Taking in 1st and 2nd November – Pizza Express Jazz Club Soho, London and
Maidstone on 8th November. Plus the Jazz Café 7th February 2015.
“I love nothing more than being on the road and meeting new people. Having just given birth to my first baby, I am really looking forward to returning to stages around the world and sharing my music, emotions and stories…” Says YolanDa.
With two albums under her belt to critical acclaim – ‘ April Showers, May Flowers’ reached No.1 on the UK Itunes Jazz Charts in 2011. In 2013, YolanDa released ‘April Showers, May Flowers Live Sessions’ – which contained a live album and live DVD.
YolanDa has been listed in the Evening Standard as one of the top 30 black students in the UK selected by Gordon Brown. She is also a celebrity ambassador for the Prince’s Trust and is also a Patron of The Mayor Of London’s Fund for Young Musicians – which provides outstanding progression and development opportunities to young people – who demonstrate significant musical talent and commitment.
A tour not to be missed.
