Description
Jade MacRae is the daughter of noted jazz and fusion keyboardist Dave MacRae (Gill Evans, Chet Baker, etc) and singer Joy Yates, who worked with the likes of Gladys Knight, Dusty Springfield, and Van Morrison, among others.
Born in London, Jade relocated to Australia at an early age where, after studying piano/violin at Sydney Conservatorium of Music she developed a multi award-winning career attaining top 40 hits with 'So Hot Right Now' and 'Superstar'. This versatile, elite artist was an in-demand 'voice for hire' on the multi genre session scenes, sang the Australian anthem at a FIFA World Cup match, appeared on various TV shows, and toured with the theatre production 'Broad'. She has shared the stage with the likes of James Brown, Ray Charles, and John Legend.
In 2020 Jade refocused on her own songwriting, releasing the album 'Handle Me With Care'. 'The perfect comeback record' according to The Guardian, demonstrating her love of 'classic' soul and old school r&b leanings. This has now been followed up with the recent release of 'IN MY VEINS' ? an album featuring guitar luminaries as US giants Kirk Fletcher and Joe Bonamassa.
