She has released 10 albums over the last nine years and has accrued over 80 million YouTube views. Based in New York, she has become a firm favourite on the vintage jazz scene there and makes regular tours of the USA and increasingly tours in Europe. Last year she came to Norfolk as part of her first tour in the U.K. for several years and we are pleased to welcome her back this May. Tatiana was born in Switzerland and grew up surrounded by music. She quickly developed a fascination with gypsy swing jazz which has formed the basis of the successful career she enjoys today. After leaving school an interest in archaeologyled Tatiana to study early medieval history at La Sorbonne in Paris and she may in fact have become an archaeologist but an opportunity arose to move to New York where she founded the successful Avalon Jazz Band thus ensuring her musical destiny.
