Lee Gibson - What the Critics say............

World class British jazz singers are a rare breed at the moment, but Lee Gibson is certainly one of them. Equally comfortable at all tempos, she is a formidable improviser but knows when to keep things simple......Steve Millward Manchester Evening News

Lee Gibson - Jazz vocal sensation .....The Independent
At a Lee Gibson performance you know that you're in the presence of an artist with both deep musical intuition and well-trained skill & professionalism. Her control over her voice as she moves from warm intimacy to soaring power is a joy to hear. I rate her CD 'You can see Forever' as one of the best recordings by a British jazz singer........Chris Howes Jazz Notes

The weekend provided something for everyone. One of the undoubted highlights proved to be the performance of visiting UK jazz vocalist Lee Gibson, who impressed the hugh outdoor audience with a terrific set....John Speight Time Out - Sydney


She is that rarity, a swinging singer who has reached the highest standards of musicianship...an immaculate set..........Time Out London

The difference between Lee Gibson and many other jazz singers is that she swings in so many different ways, sometimes subtle, sometimes sensuous, sometimes joyful but always musical. (She is) one of the best Big Band singers in the country..........The Stage

The start of a currently excellent London jazz singing scene....Bruce Crowther Jazz Journal International

One of the treasures of British jazz, Lee Gibson gave a performance that was enjoyable as it was musically immaculate. Lee quickly captured the audience's attention with a combination of creative flair, an innate sense of swing, a highly effective microphone technique and a winning stage presence .....Chris Lee Manchester Evening News

As far as I'm concerned there can never be too much of Lee Gibson..whether she is singing with the BBS Big Band or Holland's vast Metropole Orchestra, or with a simple jazz  trio, she lights up any song with her musicality....Dave Gelly The Observer

Lee is a talented and charismatic singer whose reputation for excellence pulls in the crowds....Graham Williams South Wales Evening Post
