'If you want to add a touch of class with talent I can highly recommend Annelise. My husband and I hired her to sing at our 60th birthday garden party and she was just what we hoped for. Annelise has a great voice for all those classic swing/jazz numbers , a good repertoire of songs, a warm, friendly personality and looked great. I was so glad we chose her because she helped create the kind of relaxed ambience I wanted as our guests mingled around chatting on a very hot Saturday afternoon. Would definitely hire again' Liz Stuart (Walberton, June 2019)

Annelise is a talented UK vocalist with over 20 years of experience performing live music. Annelise has performed at a number of high-end venues; weddings and both corporate and private parties, commemoration and awards events.

From start to finish, Annelise was amazing in the organisation leading up to the event, and what a sensational voice she has! She was enjoyed by all at my wedding. Couldn't have asked for anything more. Thank you for being part of our special day. We would highly recommend Annelise to anyone.

Absolutely beautiful voice. My mum booked The Jazz Woman for our wedding. I could not believe how perfect she was. Not only did she come dressed perfectly and her voice was just incredible. She just made our special day even more special. The songs were just fabulous and just right. I definitely want to hear her again.

Thank you very much for putting us in touch with Annelise for our annual marina berth-holder party. From first contact she was extremely professional throughout and attracted very favourable comments on her performance from our guests. We will definitely be asking her back in the future.
