Multi-award-winning vocalist/lyricist Georgia Mancio and double Grammy-winning pianist/composer Alan Broadbent present songs from their new album ‘A Story Left Untold’, alongside gems from their 40 strong back catalogues. This globally acclaimed collaboration spanning 12 years has been described as “one of the most formidable song writing partnerships of the 21st century” (Jazz Views), drawing comparisons to Stephen Sondheim, Rodgers & Hart, Cole Porter and Joni Mitchell. Their recordings ‘Songbook’ and ‘Quiet Is The Star’ were shortlisted Albums of The Year by the Arts Desk, Jazz Views and Jazzwise. With virtuosic performances, these songs, personal and political, beautiful and biting, are not to be missed

“rare to find a song writing and performing partnership so well matched” – The Observer ****
“outstanding beauty and power … Every lover of song will want to add Mancio and Broadbent’s tour de force to their collection” – Jazzwise ****
“In a world that it is littered with hyberbole, here we have the real thing. Music that is deeply heartfelt, expressive … and able to communicate on multiple levels” – Jazz Views

Georgia Mancio is one of Europe’s most original, adventurous and multi-faceted artists, Georgia’s work includes: the BBC Proms, Bobby McFerrin, Liane Carroll, Ian Shaw, Kate Williams, Pat Metheny (lyric approval), Bobby Wellins, Nigel Price and Jason Rebello. She produced her own festivals ReVoice! and Hang; won consecutive Parliamentary Jazz Awards (2021 Best Vocalist and 2020 Best Album) and was nominated at the Jazz FM, British Jazz and Urban Music Awards.

“[Mancio] has everything covered – technical mastery, expressive range and a remarkable versatility” – The Observer

New York based pianist Alan Broadbent is a global jazz artist whose credits include Natalie Cole, Woody Herman, Toots Thielemans, Barbra Streisand, Lee Konitz, Johnny Mandel, Paul McCartney and iconic collaborations with vocalist Irene Kral and Charlie Haden’s Quartet West. His recent recordings range from solo pianist (To The Evening Star) and trio leader (Trio In Motion), to Big Band/orchestral arranger and conductor (Grammy-nominated From This Place with Pat Metheny).

“Broadbent seems incapable of playing an unmelodic phrase, and these brief solos are all gloriously free and imaginative, while always in keeping with the mood of the piece” – Dave Gelly, The Guardian

Internationally acclaimed bassist Andrew Cleyndert has worked in the bands of British and international jazz stars including: Stan Tracey, Ronnie Scott, Annie Ross, Bobby Wellins, Gene Harris, Junior Mance, Benny Green and Tamir Hendleman. He is also a highly sought after producer and has run his own label, Trio Records, for 25 years, releasing some 36 albums.

Dave’s credits include: Ian Shaw, Alan Broadbent, Liane Carroll, Benny Golson, Gregory Porter, Claire Martin, Karin Krog, Rebecca Parris and Anthony Strong. He has also fronted his own bands, and co-produced Georgia Mancio’s albums Trapeze (2008) and Silhouette (2010)
