Jazz vocalist and songwriter Colette is based in Dublin and performs with her band Colette Quartet around Ireland.  They combine the seminal sounds of the great jazz masters - the emotional pull of Billie Holliday, the lyricism and lightness of Ella Fitzgerald and the depth of voice of Sarah Vaughn - interpreted with fresh musicality.  The well-loved classic songs that have audiences swinging are interwoven with Colette’s original thematic compositions, so each show is an exciting rendezvous of old and new creations.  Pulsing Latin rhythms, sultry soulful sounds and contemporary RnB grooves shift the focus to give the Colette Quartet a repertoire that is unique and refreshing.  Whether it is in the surrounds of an intimate jazz club, a large scale event/wedding or a festival like the 2009 Cork Jazz Festival or 2009 Electric Picnic, an entertaining performance of passion and precision are assured.  A band best experienced live!  Just ask Dermot Rogers, of Dublin City FM;

"Colette Henry is a fine new Jazz singer with crystal clear delivery and empathy for classic songs. One to watch." - Dermot Rogers, Dublin City FM
