ESTELLE KOKOT - Mimi Picture
Estelle Kokot has been called, "an original story-teller" by the Sunday Times in South Africa. An extraordinary South African singer, songwriter, arranger and pianist, she has played the jazz clubs and concert halls of South Africa, as well as the jazz circuit in London and European festivals like the Düsseldorfer Jazz Rally and Rother BlueStage. One of the first women to sing at seminal South African Jazz venue, KIPPIES in the 1980s, Estelle debuted with South African Jazz super group Phambili. She went on to guest regularly with South African World Music stars Bayete at clubs in and around Johannesburg and Soweto, before joining jazz fusion band, Rush Hour in 1988. Their album, "The Perfect Way", flew up the charts and kept music lovers of all genres mesmerised. Chico Freeman says… "Finding the singer to sing the story that captures the spirit and the heart of the song is the objective and the desire. This is Estelle."
