Ariane Jacobi

Jazz vocalist Ariane Jacobi was born in Cologne. She began piano lessons and tap dancing at the age of fourteen. Ariane developed an early love for jazz on records. “ Since I was little, I loved old school blowers, especially tenormen, like Pres, with his fragile, intensive sound, his rich melodic ideas, and I was bewildered by Ben Webster's meaty tone, his vibrato and the air at the end of the notes” Ariane said. Ariane Jacobi captures melodies with the huskiness of her voice: bouncy and effortless - full of rhythm. Shei is one of those singers who can shape melodies as well as lyrics into a believable story. With “Big City Is For Me” Ariane Jacobi offers an album with tunes from the American Songbook.
