Orli Nyles @ Iridium Jazz Club

presented by ScoBar Entertainment

Sunday, March 8th at Iridium. 6:45pm ($20)

Orli Nyles, one of Manchester's most impressive singer/ songwriter/ pianists kicked off 2007 with an appearance at New York's 'Iridium' Jazz Club on the 20th Jan by invitation of the club's director, impressed by her performances earlier in the US. He commented “she is one of the most brilliant natural jazz performers I’ve ever had the pleasure of listening to.”

Already an accomplished classical pianist by the age of 15, Orli has been songwriting since a teenager. She cites her own musical tastes as being as diverse as including R&B, Jazz, Brazilian, Latin, Bulgarian, Indian, Klezmer and Classical music. However it was mainly Jazz and Latin styles that characterised her early career.She was a finalist in 2001 Jazz Perrier Awards, performing at 606 Club in London and more locally she has appeared 6 out of the last 7 years at the Manchester Jazz Festival in addition to the Wigan, Southport and North Wales Festivals. She has sung alongside Branford Marsalis, Lianne Carroll and Ian Shaw.
