Biography
Victoria Hart is an up-and-coming eighteen year old singer, who was discovered while working as a waitress.
Victoria attended the Mougins International School in the French Riviera and in the summer of 2004, she had just finished her GCSEs. Having finished school and exams for the summer, she did what she liked to do best, and that was to sing jazz to friends and family.
At one of these events, a Jazz Picnic near Cannes, hit-songwriter Geoff Gurd heard the music of Ella Fitzgerald and Nina Simone being sung with a voice reminiscent of the late Eva Cassidy. He was immediately struck by the raw talent that this young teenager possessed.
A mere two weeks or so later, Victoria Hart put on some headphones at Gurd’s recording studio and recorded a couple of songs. It was the first time she had ever been in a recording studio but as Geoff remarked, it was as though she had been doing it all her life. And so was born a musical relationship between a 15-year old novice jazz singer and a well-known writer and producer of R&B. The partnership was unlikely but perfect. Since then Geoff has written a raft of songs specifically for Victoria. Based on her own thoughts and ideas, the words encapsulate how a teenage girl views the world, set to the rhythms of pop, jazz, swing and blues. Victoria, Geoff and Lynne Pearson have formed a team of singer, writer/producer and manager who, together with a 6-strong promotional team, are developing a debut album to be launched in 2007.
Victoria has been getting a great response when ever she has performed live she attracted terrific reviews at The Isle of Wight Jazz Festival, engaging with the audience with the ease of an experienced professional.
