ABOUT DENIELLE BASSELS 

Toronto-born, Indie Swing chanteuse Denielle Bassels is a rising star on the Canadian jazz scene. Her music is a potent melange of jazz manouche, blues, folk and pop delivered with a powerfully unique contralto voice that packs solid heart punches, sure to "stop you in your tracks" - Juliet Dunn, Music Director, TD Niagara Jazz Festival. Think of Ella Fitzgerald sipping tea on a rollercoaster with the Mad Hatter, and you will know what a night of a Denielle Bassels concert is like. A voice as sweet as Doris Day can also launch into the ferocity of Big Mama Thornton and back, never leaving you to forget that it's Denielle you're hearing. Mix that with a natural penchant for storytelling, and you have a winning combo that leaves the audience wanting more.

Bassels first album of original songs, "What About Wool Wishbags," was voted top 5 albums of 2017 by Terry McElligot of JAZZ.FM91, and seven of the eleven songs went on to win songwriting awards, with "Cool Cool Water" garnering Grand Prize in the John Lennon Song Competition.

With her new single "Little Bit a' Love" out and three singles in tow, Bassels full album is poised for launch in early June 2023
