Shirley Tetteh: The Writer Producer Fund
Having significantly contributed to the UK jazz scene for the last 10 years as a guitarist playing alongside the likes of Moses Boyd, Gary Crosby, Nathaniel Facey, Jason Yarde, Zara McFarlane and Arun Ghosh as well as being a founding member of the Jazz FM Award nominated Nérija, Shirley Tetteh is now being recognised as an artist, composer, producer, songwriter and singer in her own right. Signed to Lucky Number Records’ publishing arm by the same A&R team responsible for signing Daft Punk and M.I.A, her original blend of thoughtful lyrics, jazz-inspired harmony and left-field pop production will result in a highly anticipated release coming soon. Meanwhile, you will be able to catch her currently playing as part of such highly rated ensembles as Maisha, Nérija, as part of award winning double bassist Daniel Casimir’s band, alongside Susso, and in the Huw Marc Bennett Quintet.
