AISHA KHAN SINGS SONGS FOR ADULTS ONLY

Raunchy, bawdy, saucy songs

An evening for adults only, featuring Aisha Khan performing sophisticated and X rated songs with a nod and a cheeky wink!

Aisha Khan is based in London and sings American roots music, Jazz, Blues and Rhythm & Blues of the 1940’s/50’s. With over 25 years of experience, coupled with an unrivalled passion for the music, she combines outstanding original material with powerful cover versions and performs them all with class, soul, talent and wit.

Her debut solo album, Aishaddiction has received rave reviews. Aisha is an accomplished songwriter and currently has songs recorded and released by several Roots Music artists, including Japan's Oh!Sharels and Blueroomess and the Ragtones from Spain. She is also involved with specialist record labels writing biographies and liner notes for many different compilations and releases, in addition to writing music articles.

Aisha’s earliest influences incorporated everything from Elvis and Sarah Vaughan to Billy Bragg and Northern Soul. Naturally drawn to London’s incendiary Rockabilly club scene, she felt the irresistible pull of black American Rhythm & Blues as a call to action, setting up her first band Tiger Lily and the Jitterbugs, with which she performed throughout the UK and Europe for several years at Jazz, Blues and Rock & Roll festivals, clubs and events.

She also performed at many private events, including supporting Dame Shirley Bassey before Prince Charles at Highgrove. Subsequently, she was the first vocalist with the 10-piece big band, Blue Harlem performing Swing and Jump Jive. She has sung with Richard Berry, James Hunter and Mike Sanchez, amongst others. She is currently working in England and Europe with ongoing Projects in Spain and London. Recent performances include events with the Aisha Khan R&B Revue, Blue Harlem, Cherry Casino & the Gamblers, Robert Gordon and the Barcelona Big Blues Band with Paul Ansell.

"This big-voiced swing sister lays her cards on the table with the first track, Queeens of Rhythm. Equal parts sultry Jazz chanteuse and R&B belter, Aisha easily communicates heartbreak, joy and a range of emotions in between. With a nod to the glamour and sophistication of a bygone era, Aishaddiction is packed full of stunning original material and features outstanding musicianship. This 13-tracker covers all bases from Jump Blues to cocktail Jazz, with the odd Torch number for late night listening. A great voice and a great debut."
