Alice Zawadzki

Voice & Violin

“Loosely connected to the world of jazz, but realistically inhabiting her own realm” (Clash Magazine), the singer, multi-instrumentalist and composer Alice Zawadzki has found home in the rich overlaps of the art-pop, classical, folk, and jazz worlds. Described by MOJO magazine as "something of a phenomenon... as maverick as Fever Ray or Joanna Newsome", Alice's own releases include Within You Is A World Of Spring (2019) which was The Guardian’s 'Contemporary Album of the Month', and China Lane (2014) – “a genuine original” (The Guardian). Her next album Za Górami (Behind the Mountains) will be released on the iconic ECM label in September 2024. Alice has performed throughout Europe, as well as in the Far East, Central Asia, Russia, Turkey, the United States, Canada, Brazil and Argentina. 2023 saw her first steps into theatre, with her new monodrama, Bag of Bones, in a UK tour commissioned by the Manchester Collective, described by The Guardian as “a haunting meditation on family and freedom… a perfect marriage of music and theatre.”

“a voice of velvet suppleness and gutsy emotional power”
