	Clare Teal
		In her live performances Clare sings songs from her highly successful catalogue of records as well as songs she has not yet committed to tape.
		Described as "a sensation in the normally rather sedate world of jazz" by the Mail On Sunday, Clare possesses an extraordinarily effortless voice that has a distinctive richness and warmth balanced by a rare subtlety and intimacy.
		Clare's latest album "Don't Talk" (named after the Brian Wilson/Beach Boys song on their legendary album "Pet Sounds") was released on October 18th 2004 on Sony Records - the first release for Clare through a major label.

	Guardian \| Clare Teal
		When Clare Teal was studying the clarinet, she used to go to shopping arcades with her mum and imagine Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers leaping in and out of the aisles.
		Teal is very musicianly: some of the underplayed feints, turns and slurs in her phrasing seem to echo what she might have learned on the clarinet.
		Teal was a little buried in the mix on The Way You Look Tonight, but gave highly personal spins to the original melody in the final choruses.

		Sony is pitching Teal as its answer to Jamie Cullum, with a mix of old swing songs, elegant fusion and sharp originals.

	Amazon.co.uk: Music: Orsino's Songs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Clare Teal has a terrific range of styles and moods, from whispery-moody to dizzy-ecstatic, and they all sound natural and unforced.
		While listening to Orsino's Songs it struck me that Clare Teal not only has the voice to carry the songs she chooses but that it is her personality and the transfer of it to her music that sets her apart from the mass of female jazz vocalists there are in the world today.
		Teal no doubt has her own voice, she is not one of those "sound-a-like Simones" or worse still - a "kind-of Ella".

	Jazz Singer Leaves It Late (from Hendon Times) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Clare Teal never sung in front of anyone until she hit 21.
		Yorkshire-born Teal is known just as much for her voice as for her cheery northern humour.
		Although she was a music student, Teal feels it was her hours of practice as a child which was her real singing training.

		This is a very impressive album by Clare Teal, I don’t know whether it is her first, but she shows a great deal of maturity, that can only have come from experience.

		Hotley touted as one of the leading vocalists in the UK, Yorkshire born Clare Teal was hardly out of the press last year and now it seems she is back with a vengeance.
		Although a relatively new arrival on the jazz circuit Teal is already a very accomplished and respected jazz songstress and is in demand also as co-writer.
		Clare might become a cult!' Jazzwise 'She has a delicacy of phrasing and pinpoint control that have some comparing her to Ella Fitzgerald; for me, that is blended with a breezy quality that brings to mind any number of the great female singers of the fifties.

	Tracks
		These artists influenced Clare Teal through their music; in a now well-known story, Clare discovered a record player and a pile of 78's in her parent's attic and was transported into that time of creativity and passion.
		On this album, Clare is again complimented by her band, who are, as Callum Jones said, 'a group of top players who know exactly what they are doing'.
		Clare is also joined by two special guests: Jamie Cullum, with whom she shares a record label and a groovy self-penned duet on the title song, and Melvin Duffy, who contributes pedal steel guitar to another, more pensive original called "So Blue".

	BBC - Jazz Review - Clare Teal, That's the Way It Is
		Clare's voice is smooth and bell-like, but with the suggestion of something dangerous lurking beneath, and her expression is masterful.
		Clare's similarly languorous delivery of "Speak Low" gives it the intimacy and artifice of travelling theatre, mischief oozing out until the song becomes urgent and threatening.
		Clare is worthy of the acclaim received by the "Cool" singers of the 1950s.

	EuroClub de Jazz (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		It is a curious mix of traditional big band led standards, original songs and pop-tunes and reflects the present interest in the more commercial avenues in jazz.
		The album opens with a Clare teal original 'Messin' With Fire' and the intro reminded me of the Eric Delany hit 'Big Noise From Wanetka' complete with Sandy Nelson type tom-toms.
		Yet another tasty sax solo by one of the two aforementioned saxophonists that ends with a corny piece of arranging that sounds like the famous 'Pearl and Dean' them of cinema fame-lets try and be a little more original and adventurous please.

		Don't Talk, named after the Beach Boys' song, is Clare Teal's fourth album, her first with this label, and will come as no disappointment to her growing legion of fans.

		The audience at the Anvil who had come to see Michael Parkinson’s latest jazz find, Clare Teal, were justifiably disappointed at having to wait until the second half of the show for her to take to the stage.
		Teal has recently landed a multimillion pound deal with Sony - said to be the largest ever for a UK jazz artist - and her current label Candid, determined to milk the publicity hype, pushed out her stablemates As Meninas to do a full hour-long set rather than the expected 20 minutes of support.
		Teal herself is in the jazz pub singer mould, rather like Jamie Cullum.

		The reason for searching is that the backings are as good, as Clare’s exceptional singing, the backing groups vary from jazz quintet (Alan Barnes?), to swinging big band, to string choir.
		It seems certain that Clare has a very big future in the world of International record sales, she has a fine voice, excellent diction and phrasing and that certain something, that makes a good singer into an international star.
		She also contributes several of her own compositions, which are in no way out of place with the works of Ellington, Porter etc. There is some wonderful jazz trumpet on The Music Goes Round and Round (Bruce Adams?) and some fine excellent jazz tenor (Ben Castle?) on other tracks.
