You can't beat that sky! Just maybe there is some rain in those clouds....

Could you help shape the future of OSS events?

Don't miss an exclusive evening in London with Old Stoic jazz and soul singer Poppy Baker (Cheshire 21) and her trio, at PizzaExpress Piano Lounge Leicester Square. A rare chance to experience stripped-down renditions of Poppy's exquisite contemporary works, alongside her enchanting interpretations of beloved jazz classics - this is an opportunity not to be missed.

Poppy’s captivating songs straddle the jazz, soul and indie genres, and despite her tender years Poppy Baker has already performed at the Cheltenham Jazz Festival, PizzaExpress Live, the Upton Blues Festival and the Eastside Jazz Festival – as a soloist with the BBC Big Band. Fans of Raye, Laufey or Stacey Ryan will love Poppy Baker!

OS Abi Roberts (West 22) has been in touch about her new song release...
Abi explains ..'The song is called ‘A love letter to who you weren’t’ By Abi-Fay which explores the mental struggle of having a break up with someone who wasn’t who they were when you first met them.'
Abi has recently graduated from Trinity Laban and used her skills as a professional violinist on this track. She wrote, sang, played multiple instruments, produced, and arranged parts for this song for herself and a big team of musicians.
