Jazz 825: Catherine Lima

Catherine Lima has been singing on the London jazz circuit since 2001. She is a charismatic and entertaining performer. Drawing on influences such as Anita O’Day, Hoagy Carmichael, Barbra Streisand and Peggy Lee, she has a warm expressive tone that she uses expertly to create moods from sultry to joyous.
