Padam

Mandy Meadows, a fine New Zealand singer based in London, draws her musical inspiration from jazz and soul icons such as Diana Krall, Etta James, Alicia Keys and Amy Winehouse, to name a few.  You can find Mandy regularly performing all over London at one of her residencies at luxury hotels and live music venues. Mandy recorded her most recent album “Oceania” in Brooklyn, NYC with “The Queen’s Cartoonists”. 

Mandy has performed with various groups and shows throughout Europe, Australia, Asia, Central and North America.

In addition to her work as a professional session vocalist for TV and radio, Mandy holds a post-graduate degree in Jazz Vocals from the Queensland Conservatorium of Music, and her original music has been aired on 4ZzZfm Queensland, Edge FM Tasmania, RRR, PBS and SYN FM Melbourne, and ABC's RAGE.

Mandy's new show, "Wine, Cheese & Edith" is an exciting new addition to her portfolio. She is currently working with the amazing arranger Thomas Harris from Boston, New York,  to create authentic arrangements for piano, accordion, clarinet, drums, double bass and piano for a wine and cheese evening of "Chanson".  The best wines and cheese directly from France will be served by a french sommelier, so get on your Breton shirt, twist your tiny moustache and prepare for the classiest, funniest, tear-jerkiest evening in a town near you.

Her U.K. based band,  "Mandy Meadows & The Mood Swings" are outrageously different to anything you’ve seen before.  Taking modern songs and adding a saucy stride, vintage swing or daring doo-wop – this isn’t just jazz – it’s all of it rolled into one and anyone watching simply cannot keep still. 

Members of the band have performed all over the world on luxury cruise ships and at jazz festivals, toured with West End Stars, Grammy nominated artists, X-Factor finalists, and they are regulars on the London scene at frequenting clubs such as Ronnie Scott’s, The Blue Note, The Shard, 606 Club and The Jazz Cafe. Their lives are music.
