Edmonia Jarrett



 "Legal At Any Age"
with special guests
Freddy Cole & Andy Simpkins

 

Edmonia sings jazz with presence, delivery and a commanding style.

This collection of songs holds special meaning... they tell stories of experiences and observations, and the fact that one is never too old to swing.

"Edmonia's singing was a pleasant and happy surprise - she has a unique approach to the music." - Freddy Cole

"Edmonia Jarrett is a fine lady and an excellent vocalist - there is a real warmth in her singing." - Teddy Edwards
