Jazz Trumpeter, Vocalist & Educator

Welcome

Since being tipped for the top by Jazzwise magazine, Sue Richardson’s career has gone from strength to strength. Her most recent album, Too Cool, the life & music of Chet Baker, cemented her position in the jazz world – gaining four and five star reviews in the jazz press as well as internationally, and sell out gigs at Ronnie Scott’s jazz club.

It was also listed in The Sunday Times’ 100 Best Records of The Year 2013, which said, “The trumpeter and singer Sue Richardson’s homage to Chet Baker brings the boy wonder back to life.”

Sue Richardson’s trumpet playing catches [Baker’s] combination of delicacy and strength, and her singing has something of his candid simplicity. She even writes the kind of tunes that he might have invented.
