“The Charity Dreamgirls is such a fantastic project. It’s a great show, and a great way to raise awareness and funds for smaller, lesser known charities. It’s a real privilege to work with such a committed team, Kate Hardcastle is an absolute inspiration.”

Jenny Smith is a talented and versatile vocalist in a variety of genres and has had a diverse career in the music industry that had led her to join as the newest Charity Dreamgirl just last year.

Originally from Hull, Jenny moved to Leeds in 2003 to follow her dreams in becoming a musician, undertaking a BA Degree in Jazz Studies where she was awarded the Leeds College of Music prize for her singing in the Jazz and Popular Style category in 2006.

Jenny currently performs across the UK with a rich variety of ensembles, including the self-named Jenny Smith Quintet, featuring the talented Jim Corry who has worked with the likes of Corinne Bailey Rae and Jamiroqui. Jenny also features in the all-girl a’cappella group Solaris, Al Morrison’s Blues Experience and the Derrick Harris Organ Trio.

Her career has brought her many exciting opportunities; Jenny’s credits include touring with the theatre show ‘Swing Fever’, providing backing vocals for Juliet Roberts and Marisa Turner, and the lead vocals with the Al Wood Big Band.
