Manage episode 474953861 series 3656941
Geoff doorsteps the 29-year old vocal genius Freddie Benedict and discovers that his talents go far beyond just trumpet and vocals. Could Britain’s answer to Michael Bublé be any more talented?
With an undergraduate degree in Spanish and Portuguese before formally studying jazz at Guildhall, Freddie brings linguistic depth to his performances, particularly evident in his passion for Brazilian music. This linguistic mastery combines with his unique dual identity as a vocalist and trumpet player, to create performances that blend technical skill with emotional depth. His debut show at London’s Ronnie Scott’s sold out in just two weeks – compelling evidence that audiences are eager to experience his unique and diverse musical talent.
Freddie talks jazz heroes, ADR and Bossa Nova demonstrating his vocal improvisation prowess to Jobim’s ‘One Note Samba’.
