POLLY GIBBONS
- Wednesday 13th May, 2026

Polly Gibbons is a proven force on the international jazz circuit having been twice-nominated as "Best Jazz Vocalist" by the BBC and Jazz FM and compared to a female version of Gregory Porter by US magazine Downbeat.

While an accomplished jazz artist, Polly’s musical influences as a vocalist and composer also leans heavily into blues, soul, gospel and R&B - so much so that The Sunday Times described her jazz vocals as “vintage R&B with shades of Aretha Franklin”. She has performed at London’s Royal Albert Hall opening for George Benson and Gladys Knight, and had a residency at New York's legendary Birdland Jazz Club. In London she is a regular at Ronnie Scott’s as well as performing at venues and festivals across the USA, Europe and Asia, from Java Jazz in Indonesia to the Montreal Jazz Festival in Canada, securing her status as a seasoned, internationally acclaimed artist. It's a rare honour to welcome her sharing her songs and stories with us in our intimate venue.

EMILIA QUINN & LUCCA MAE
- JUNE 17th 2026

Alongside feted heritage artists, we like to bring the best of the emerging talent to the Sessions and we are delighted to have secured the services of both Emilia Quinn, with her unique blend of Country Blues and Americana, alongside the soulful Lucca Mae, making big waves on the London scene.

EMILIA QUINN

Emilia Quinn is a dynamic UK-based artist known for her raw, soulful voice and genre-bending sound influenced by Americana, Folk Rock, Blues and more. With a background in classical training and a passion for storytelling, Emilia creates emotionally charged music that resonates deeply with listeners. Having performed at major festivals like Country2Country, The Long Road, and Black Deer, her Award Nominated debut album 'Wanderlust & Breaking Rules" (2023) was followed by 2025's 'Dented Halos' which achieved Number 1 in the iTunes Blues Chart and 27 in the all genres chart.

LUCCA MAE

Lucca Mae is a new name making waves on the scene who, amongst others, channels the raw soul of Sam Cooke, Paulo Nutini and the timeless spirit of Amy Winehouse. Her artistry caught the attention of legendary drummer brothers Alan White (Oasis) and Steve White (Paul Weller), who recorded on her debut album 'The Truth Is'—an endorsement few can claim. Following shows across the UK, Australia, Canada and Sweden, Luca also had the honour of opening for Grammy Nominee (and Van Morrison duet partner) James Hunter before her own recent headline album launch gig at London's famed Bush Hall. Most definitely one to watch!
