Norah Hendriks

Norah Hendriks is a singer-songwriter whose jazz-infused pop draws on classical training. This London concert at Vortex Jazz Club brings a stripped-back selection of the songs to the stage, following the recent EP PIANO HEADACHES.

Norah Hendriks writes jazz-infused pop that is light in tone yet tender in feeling. Classically trained from the age of five, the singer-songwriter moved from Amsterdam to London in 2021 and has built a following for diaristic lyrics, intricate harmonies and self-deprecating humour.

Her recent EP, PIANO HEADACHES, gathers reworks for piano and voice, inspired by soundcheck performances that circulated widely online. This concert at the Vortex follows the release of that record, with the songs presented in a stripped-back form.

Vortex Jazz Club hosts concerts and shows in London, and this evening places Hendriks's songwriting at the centre of the programme. The night suits listeners interested in jazz-leaning pop, particularly those who know the reworked arrangements from the EP and want to hear the material in a more pared-down setting.
