The duo of rising London-based vocalist Sylvie Noble and BBC Young Jazz Musician of the Year 2025 Ursula Harrison (double bass) bring their beautifully poised, playful, resonant and captivating music to The Lescar.
Fearlessly pushing boundaries, their duo mixes influences from both jazz and folk music; storytelling sits alongside deep grooves and interplay, both vulnerable and humorous, this is a duo making a real impact on the UK jazz scene, with an acclaimed and boldly innovative album ‘New Eve’ released earlier this year.
