There is a special ticket offer for the Allegra Club gig on 30. 09.11. All the details are in this mornings Basler Zeitung. We, the Alexia Gardner and Offbeat Trio, look forward to seeing you all there. Come and help us celebrate winning the 2011 Swiss Jazz Award with a blast!

Hello there everyone! Greetings from sleepy Liestal!....thats in Basel Land in Switzerland! Most of us are asleep here but that could be because I was just chatting to a friend in Miami and to my Mum in Montego Bay!! So things seem real quiet........until of course.... I get a text from Kalli Gerhards (Mr Bass Man). He says...... 'Check this out'. I click on the link and find I am in the Bolero Magazine for Men. I am in their September issue. I did a crazy photoshoot 2 months ago as a guest of Robi Weber (Piano Player, Composer, Writer and Swiss Jazz Award winner) and his good friend, Ernst Witz (Saxophonist, Photographer, Artistic Director).

It was crazy....... models, make-up artists and hair stylists, camera men and scene builders, glasses of champagne, smoke and cigars and me! I was told what to wear and someone played with my hair and I allowed a make-up artist to do my make-up.....

So the end result is.....'OOOOOOOH BOY!'

Hi Guys! Guess what? I am in the JAZZTIME TODAY. I was interviewed for the Swiss Jazz and Blues Magazine  - JAZZTIME. I am featured in their September issue talking about my feelings on  winning the 2011 Swiss Jazz Award with Offbeat Trio. I thought I might share the interview with you all. It would help if you spoke GERMAN, though.  If not, just know that I was absolutely 'chuffed' by the whole thing!
