The first show of their 2025 residency for Late Night Jazz, Blue Lab Beats present their pick of the ones to watch in London jazz right now, kicking off with showcase performances from Emily Tran and Shanise Hall, and a one-off chance catch them both jamming together with Blue Lab Beats.
Pianist and composer Emily Tran is a rising star on the London jazz scene. Since joining Tomorrow’s Warriors, she has developed a versatile musical voice, performing at iconic venues like Queen Elizabeth Hall, Ronnie Scott’s, and the Barbican. Recently, she performed with the Nu Civilisation Orchestra at King's Place, arranging and playing Duke Ellington’s ‘New Orleans Suite.’ Her solo project, The Emily Tran Quintet, blends diverse influences, from her childhood piano and organ performances at the Vietnamese Church to studying classical composition at the Royal Academy of Music.
Shanise Hall is a third-generation Jamaican Jazz Trumpeter who grew up in Streatham. She draws inspiration from Roy Hargrove and is known for her emotive playing style, resonating with audiences on a spiritual level. In 2023, she transitioned from a promising academic path in neuroscience to a flourishing career in jazz, with the unwavering support of her grandmother, aunt, and mentors Gary Crosby OBE and Tomorrow’s Warriors.
