With a confident delivery of smooth vocals Aisling is at ease whether covering a jazz standard, soul classic or funky disco tune. Taken under the wing of Jazz musician Jeff Gordon (Jazz warriors) six years ago Aisling began her schooling in Jazz music going on to meet and collaborate with some of London's top instrumentalist's.

A regular performance on the Live London circuit she has performed at London venues such as The Jazz Cafe, Cafe de Paris, The Bush hall, Guanabara, and Mau Mau bar in Notting hill.

She has also performed at numerous corporate events, weddings, functions and parties in and around London and Ireland with some of the UK's finest musicians accompanying her.

In October of 2006 she performed at the world famous Jazz festival in Cork and looks likely to be a regular feature at the Festival held yearly in her hometown.

REVIEW

A good-sized, supportive crowd turned out for Vocals@Vortex (Monday, 23).

"The point of these occasions is to provide a showcase for up-and-coming singer-songwriters, an opportunity seized with both hands by Cork-born singer Aisling Stephenson. She has a strong, flexible contralto voice, which she warmed up with a couple of jazz standards, the Ellington/Russell classic 'Do Nothin' Till You Hear from Me' and the archetypal Jobim tune, 'Desafinado', on which she combined an almost conversational intimacy with just the right amount of drama. It was her own songs, though, that truly allowed her to show what she could do, requiring her as they did to inject considerable amounts of soulful yearning into her delivery of their affecting lyrics. Given that she's also possessed of a confident but not cocky stage manner, she should (by rights, but what have they ever had to do with success?) go far."
