CLAIRE JONES - LEAD VOCALS

At a statuesque 5’10" Claire towers above most other leading ladies, and not just in terms of height. She’s an amazing singer. One of the best. An absolute vocal power-house. She can sing anything from the smoothest jazz to the raunchiest rock. She’s versatile and talented with personality to burn and a voice that sends shock waves of listening pleasure through every audience.

In her own words:
I’ve been singing and performing since child-hood. I started in the school choir and went on to star in my high-school musical production  before competing in a nation-wide talent quest and winning the final in Melbourne with my own version of Streisand’s smoky classic: "Send in the Clowns." After high-school I won a scholarship to a private university in Texas where I snagged the coveted role as lead singer with the college jazz band - The Royals. I spent the next four years touring the country and performing with a full brass band at venues in New York and LA and all through the south including the iconic "Cat’s Meow" in New Orleans and concert halls in Georgia, Louisiana, Alabama and Texas. I returned to Perth at 22 and formed Little Black Dress with my two gorgeous sisters. We made a big impression at a time when the local music scene was dominated by all-male pub bands and spent the next decade performing at some of the city’s hottest venues. I joined The Amplifiers (now Diamond Road) in 2012.
