Barbara Roberts & Band

Charming, spirited and soulful – that's Barbara Roberts. She guarantees absolute musicality and hypnotizes her audience with her dynamic vocal range from softly melting to highly expressive. You can't help but swing!

The charismatic "Bavarian with a direct line to the soul of jazz" is well known for her warm and velvety voice. A swinging rhythm, clear intonation and articulation as well as expressiveness and a deep understanding of lyrics, melody and harmonies characterize her interpretations. Mark Murphy called her a "jazz stylist" – a singer who has found her own style.

Together with her superb musicians Max Braun (sax), Davide Roberts (p), Rudi Schiessl (b) and Thomas Elwenspoek (dr) she creates an intimate atmosphere – full of energy but also relaxed, exciting and calm, exhilarating and melancholy. For many years this band was a regular item in Munich Jazzclub Unterfahrt's program.

Their repertoire includes countless (jazz) hits of the past century – from Gershwin to Cole Porter, Bacharach & David, Jobim to the Beatles. Besides general jazz programs, special tribute programs for composers or wonderful singers like Billie Holiday, Chet Baker or Marilyn Monroe are very popular with the audience.
