JAZZ SOUL CHANTEUSE
​Latest Gig News
"She can belt out a song, dramatize a lyric, swing hard and earthy, flirt, sing a tender song - Lily can 'tell a story'." (Jim McLeod, ABC)
"Dior makes a valuable addition to the London jazz scene.
Her lyric voice, at times tender, at others forceful, is pure and clear, and her pitch spot on throughout. Her singing seems to tap into her innermost feelings... beautifully conveying each song’s significance. Furthermore, she fills the stage in a graceful and effortless manner and has a great understanding of and working relationship with her band." (Cabaret Scenes)
Album Out Now
"The profound relationship between melody and lyric leaves these tunes permeating long after the disc has ended. Without a doubt Lily's finest album to date.” - Peter Wockner, Jazz and Beyond
