Awarded BBC jazz best vocalist and best jazz award in 2005, Liane Carroll is generally respected by her fellow professionals as one of the finest female vocalists on the scene. I booked tickets for the Daffodil ages ago and although the evening didn't turn out quite as I expected, it was eventful none the less. The evening was titled 'Bare Feet & Beehives' as a tribute to singers like Sandy Shaw and Petula Clark. The food was delicious, the music very varied and Liane fully deserves her awards - but in the end, it was a bit of an odd evening. For a venue where jazz is played every week, I did wonder why there was no music at all during the reception and the meal. And queuing to pay the bar bill at the end of the evening was a bit weird too. I left feeling a little disappointed because I thought the venue would have blown me away - but it didn't! Oh well... I'll just have to stick to having my fun experiences at the HDuVin, Brasserie Blanc and Montpellier Chapters xx xx
