Tricity Vogue

Charming, offbeat musical cabaret from a vintage songstress with a repertoire of surprising tunes and a colourful history of romantic misadventure.

Tricity Vogue presents her own blend of slink and sass - the music she likes to call "cheeky jazz". Think Peggy Lee after a few too many cocktails.

“A very special talent.”

Tricity Vogue took up the ukelele* in 2007 in an attempt to recreate the Big Band sound single-handed after her musicians stood her up for a gig. She fell in love with the small pink instrument and has since become a wandering troubadour, appearing with her ukelele everywhere from Paris to Portlaoise, and from Edinburgh to Ealing.

Tricity set up the Ukelele Cabaret in November 2007 for fellow friends of the four strings - an impromptu night of special guests, open mic spots and group singalongs, held every month at the Lincoln Lounge, Kings Cross.

“Tricity Vogue and her uke… recipe for one of the finest shows you’ll see. Kooky, quirky and ever so sweet, it’s cabaret to run down side-streets for – just get there early.”
Time Out London

(*Tricity uses the minority spelling of “ukelele” instead of the more common “ukulele” because it abbreviates more logically to uke, and because she likes being perverse)

A kitsch portrait comes to life to perform Tricity’s unique take on the blues in a dazzling, witty and strangely haunting cabaret spectacle.

One-hour musical extravaganza The Blue Lady Sings premiered at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern’s Hot August Fringe in August 2009. Tricity Vogue’s newest incarnation The Blue Lady also makes regular appearances in cabaret.

“Elegantly hilarious”

“…swoon!”

Tongue-in-cheek vintage jazz from a lush musical ensemble, the Tricity Vogue Slinktet’s mischievously witty sound harks back to a bygone era while at the same time sounding suspiciously modern.

Tricity Vogue and friends romp their way through swing, latin, and blues, as they revisit old favourites, give unexpected songs a jazz twist, and introduce you to some originals that Tricity and her partner-in-crime Honey Mink deny are inspired by their own romantic misadventures.

“Tricity Vogue and her band work their magic with jazzy covers of modern classics… and soon the floor is full.”

By day, Tricity Vogue leads a secret double life as a writer, and her alter-ego Heather Tyrrell is currently collaborating on a television script set in the cabaret demi-monde.
