BlackCat is a hybrid jazz trio that offers a new school take on the original jazz sound. Featuring traditional jazz standards with influence drawn from country and pop, the trio genre bends through the lush sounds of soul & blues all wrapped up in a slicked back cabaret assembly. Snippets of Nina Simone, Amy Winehouse and Norah Jones might bring the mental picture into focus. Featuring the sultry voice of Urshula Leung, folk inspired keys of David Elliston and classically infused cello lines from Nicholas Mercer.
