Elaine Delmar, winner of the Parliamentary Jazz Awards Best Singer in 2013 and most recently 20 years on in 2023, returns to Crazy Coqs, following her several sold-out concerts with the music of George Gershwin, Cole Porter and Jerome Kern, not forgetting her memories of Lena Horne, and collections from her “MUSICAL BOTTOM DRAWER”.

Tuesday November 19th @7pm she performs “Let Me Sing You A Song”.

Saturday November 23rd at 2pm she performs “An Afternoon at Duke's Place” celebrating the epoch changing songs of the great Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, featuring the ever-popular saxophone star that is
Alan Barnes, with
Barry Green – piano and
Dave Green- double bass.

Elaine has long been established as a singer of the very highest calibre - with the voice, looks and personality that have captivated world-wide audiences.
She’s equally at home, whether entertaining a concert audience, or performing in the more intimate cabaret/small theatre settings.
In addition to her many sold-out concerts at Crazy Coqs, her American Song Book presentations sold out at Ronnie Scott’s, The Pheasantry and Piano Smithfield, plus in a spectacular big band show for the London Jazz Festival.
Here’s Elaine with the timeless Gershwin classic “S’Wonderful.”
