About Sheila ..... Jazz/Swing Duo, Trio, Quartet
or Quintet for your UK Event.
Sheila Daniels had a background where music was foremost.
She loved singing as a child , inspired from an early age by the Hollywood
Musicals of the 40’s & 50’s. She now travels throughout the UK delivering
some of the coolest jazz, groovin' swing and hottest Latin standards
from Hoagy Carmichael, George and Ira Gershwin, Harold Arlen, Rodgers
and Hart and many other major songwriters of the Great American Songbook.
Sheila has also been influenced by many great female performers such
as Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald and Judy Garland and more recently
Anita Wardell, and Nina Ferro. Her sense of style and with a voice reminiscent
of the great swing singers of the Hollywood and Ratpack eras, Sheila
is the perfect choice for any private or corporate event.
Sheila grew up in Hampshire and moved to London when she was 19 in order
to attend drama school at Drama Studio London in Ealing, where her passion
for singing and performing grew. She later formed a band and performed
regular jazz nights in the West London area and was regularly booked
for weddings, corporate events and private parties. Sheila then teamed
up with a pianist and performed smooth dinner jazz in venues such as
The Dome Brasserie in Kew, Sidolis Wine Bar in Mayfair and the Athenaeum
Hotel on Piccadilly. She also sang in a musical tribute to George Gershwin
at the the Fortune Theatre, Covent Garden, London and performed in the
musical ‘Nine' at the the Royal Festival Hall, London.
