Sarah L King Presents The Light Ahead

Jazz singer-songwriter and composer Sarah L King brings her brand new album tour The Light Ahead to PizzaExpress Live Soho. With a heady cocktail of soul, jazz and funk, King and her world class trio deliver her catchy groove-led original songs with King’s assured pure-toned vocals and a warm stage presence, making this a show not to be missed! Sarah L King grew up under the influence of her jazz trumpeter and bandleader father. After singing in several London-based soul and gospel choirs, and a creative career in filmmaking and screenwriting, King has emerged as an accomplished vocalist, songwriter and composer, catapulting onto the London jazz scene. King’s much acclaimed first album Fire Horse, produced by Claire Martin OBE (producer of The Light Ahead) has featured on Jazz FM and BBC Radio 3 Jazz Requests. King has toured with her Stockholm trio, and made a sold out appearance at the EFG London Jazz Festival 2025. With her stellar line-up, this is a fantastic opportunity to see a live performance of King’s groove-led and uplifting songs from this exciting new album. ""King has a most endearing vocal presence, and a wonderful way of phrasing that lifts the lyrics giving them a gravitas and meaning that might otherwise be lost."" - Nick Lea, Jazz Views
