Stacey Kent

Critically acclaimed, Grammy-nominated singer Stacey Kent sings from the soul, telling her stories with faultless phrasing and a lucid, enchanting voice. Her recent CD release "Marcos Valle & Stacey Kent Live," marked the 50th career anniversary of the Brazilian songwriter, arranger, and performer Marcos Valle. Stacey's previous Brazilian-flavored CD, “The Changing Lights,” (EMI) a follow-up to “Dreamer In Concert,” (her first ever live album) the Grammy nominated, “Breakfast on the Morning Tram,” (2007) and all-French, “Raconte-moi,” (2009). Stacey’s band features Jim Tomlinson (sax) whose songwriting partnership with famed novelist Kazuo Ishiguro has been a central plank in her career.
