Angela Iimura, a rich angelic voice with the heart of Eva Cassidy, Soul of Sarah Vaughn and the stylish warmth of Anita O’Day “  The mysterious calm of the ocean at dusk, Autumn in New York, the mist that creeps in on a mountain side, Paris, Spring Cherry Blossoms in Japan, kissing someone for the first time, the Australian bush after rain: Angela Iimura casts an enchantment that’s hard to define.

Influenced by musical greats like Astrud Gilberto, Anita ODay, Ella Fitzgerald, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Sarah Vaughn, Nancy Wilson, Erykah Badu and Emily King, her music is elegant, sophisticated, and as innocent and welcoming as Spring.

Angela was born in Japan to a rock star father so music was always going to be in her genes. She was given a baby grand piano at age three and immediately began playing all her known nursery songs. At age five Angela began an education in classical piano which she continued for 12 years. But it wasn’t until she was living in Hawaii many years later that she debuted her singing voice at the Honolulu Jazz Loft.

After moving back to Australia in 2004 Angela began playing regular jazz gigs around south east Queensland with many marvellous musicians.

In 2010, she featured on several original songs written for the Transparentsea film as well as singing backing vocals for The Band of Frequencies at Woodford Folk Festival.

After a 6 year maternity leave, Angela is now playing solo gigs as well as backing vocals and ukulele for Andrea Kirwin. She plans to record a solo album in the near future.

Doors open at 6.30pm. Show starts at 7.30pm.
