Singer and composer Fini Bearman is already being cited as one of the UK's leading contemporary jazz vocalists. Recently nominated for Jazz Vocalist 2010 alongside Norma Winstone and Ian Shaw , Fini's heartfelt delivery and choice of song makes her an exciting, unique performer, and definitely a musician to watch.

 

Fini graduated from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, London in July 2007- whilst there she studied with some of the countries top musicians, including Martin Hathaway, Pete Churchill, Anita Wardell, and Martin Speake. In 2008 she went to the Jazz Institute Berlin, where she went on to spend 18 months under the tuition of renowned US vocalist Judy Niemack and US guitarist and composer Kurt Rosenwinkel. Now back in the UK, Fini is working once more with her London based Quartet  and recently recorded her debut album 'Step Up', launched in Spring 2011.
