SINGER HIRE / PIANIST
Born into a family of musicians, Lucy’s natural talent for music was apparent early in life. By the age of twelve she was an outstanding classical
pianist and cellist, qualifying for a Royal Academy of Music scholarship by the age of thirteen.
Multi-talented Lucy Sassoon has it all, not only a professional
singer and skilled
pianist, Lucy is also an accomplished television presenter and voiceover artist. Her sound has been likened to that of Diana Krall and Renee Geyer, yet whether smooth jazz, gritty blues or pop, her musical interpretations are characterised by the distinctively smoky Sassoon style.
From humble beginnings, Lucy went on to complete her Bachelor of Music majoring in piano at the University of London. This was soon followed by her first foray into performing overseas in Hong Kong where she became a regular
singer for
hire /
pianist on the elite corporate and exclusive hotel scene. It was during her first year backpacking in the 90’s in Australia that Lucy realised what she missed most…was her grand piano.
Within a year of performing at London’s prestigious Pizza on the Park and Camden’s Jazz Café, Lucy returned to Australia in 2005 and had hit Sydney’s noted Winebanq, Soup Plus and Arthouse. She went on to hold
singer /
pianist /duo/trio and four piece residencies at Sydney’s exclusive 5 Star hotels, including the Park Hyatt, Intercontinental Hotel, the Sheraton on the Park, the Marriott, the Stamford Plaza Double Bay and the Sofitel Wentworth. Also she was flown around the country to perform.
Lucy supported the Las Vegas Platters on their Australian tour two years running and was the support act for the Drifters on their recent tour of Australia.
YOUR PARTY OR EVENT
Lucy Sassoon’s beautiful voice is something that sets her apart from the average
singer for
hire /
pianist. Her sensitivity, warm and engaging, intelligent manner and her ability to read her audiences, enable her to create the perfect ambience. These qualities make her a stand-out
singer for
hire /
pianist.
Her repertoire ranges from Eva Cassidy to Jamie Cullum, Stevie Wonder to Bacharach, Billie Holliday to John Mayer and U2 to Carole King, so it’s no surprise Lucy Sassoon is in constant demand.
Stevie Wonder, Ella and singing along ‘Linda Ronstadt style’ to her father’s piano renditions of jazz standards are Lucy's warmest childhood musical memories; whilst she also cites Pat Metheny, Lyle Mayes, Sinatra, Diana Krall & Quincy Jones amongst her greatest influences.
