"Jazz Paradigm delivered an outstanding performance, setting the perfect tone for the evening with their incredible live jazz music. Their energy and talent truly enhanced the atmosphere of the event. Highly recommended!"
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"Jazz Paradigm are hands down one of the best groups I've heard in a long time. We were hosting an outdoor Jazz and BBQ evening and the guys couldn't have been more amazing! The music was perfect and Lorraine's voice is sublime. They set the atmosphere and mood from the moment they started, and so many of our guests commented on how wonderful they were. Thank you so much, Jazz Paradigm for a perfect evening. We look forward to working with you all again in the future."
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"Jazz Paradigm were absolutely sublime performing their show ‘Streisand’ at the Crazy Coqs. Her performance and voice were both utterly outstanding! She completely captivated the audience. In addition, the musicians Lorraine sang with were of the highest calibre. I’m very excited to see them performing again soon!"

The repertoire contained a beautifully composed selection. The introductions to each song were thoughtful and added insight. It was a marvellous evening, and I will definitely be at this band’s next performance."
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"Well hello, it’s Larry Richmond back on the entertainment scene, and so good to be attending live entertainment again. On Sunday 20th February I attended the Pheasantry in Chelsea, to see Jazz Paradigm. I had previously seen the band’s showreel and was looking forward to seeing them live on stage. The Pheasantry is one of London’s top two cabaret rooms. I arrived well in time to order a meal and a bottle of wine. The show started at 8.00 pm. The venue was full. After an introduction by the compere, Lorraine looking stunningly elegant in her long glittering dress entered the room from the above-stage balcony and slowly walked down the stairway singing her opening song. Throughout the 90 min show, consisting of two 45 min sets, Lorraine backed by her excellent band of piano, bass, drums, and guitar, gave us the best of the American songbook in a relaxed and stylish style which was a joy to hear and see. I understand that Lorraine was a successful professional performer in her native Ireland during the early part of her career, and then gave up performing to marry and start a family. How glad I am that this talented lady has decided to return to her showbiz career and is now performing again. Lorraine has that certain element that we call ‘star’ quality."
