Lucy Iffla – Jazz Singer
After years of cultivating her craft, she received a Top 10 Nomination for the Wangaratta 2020 National Jazz Awards. Lucy showcases an elegant and timeless voice beyond her years…
From an early age Lucy Iffla had a passion for diverse music ranging from The Doobie Brothers to Ella Fitzgerald. Her love for music led her to completing a Bachelor of Music, specialising in Jazz at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts. After years of cultivating her craft and playing alongside some of Perth’s finest established musicians in many instrumental settings, Iffla has developed her sound and showcases an elegant and timeless voice beyond her years
Performing in several orchestras and ensembles have challenged and taught her to sing in multiple languages with complex and varied rhythms, which has inspired her own original music. Lucy has been delighted in being nominated for a WA Music Award ‘Best Vocalist’, receiving the 2020 Jazz Bachelor Recital Award and placing as a Top Ten Finalist for the National Wangaratta Jazz Awards. This recognition has led Lucy to perform in the International Cabaret Festival, Perth Festival, Perth International Jazz Festival and across many local and corporate venues in Perth. She often relates to Ella’s famous quote, “The only thing better than singing is more singing”.
In 2016, Lucy competed in the Rising Star Quartet Competition and the Pan Pacific Harmony Festival in Auckland, an international convention that draws the world’s best female, barbershop a cappella groups to compete in a fierce worldwide competition. The FilleHarmonics a cappella, placed 6th and 7th in this challenging arena.
Around Perth, Lucy’s performances include, the 2016 Claremont Arts Festival opening for Clare Bowditch, several Abode Jazz Festivals, the 2015 and 2016, Cottesloe Street Festivals and has performed at various local venues and functions, including the 2016 Freshwater Bay Yacht Club Harry Perkin’s Institute fundraiser.
