Jasmine Chen + JC Quartet

“…soft and sensuous sounding Chinese chanteuse …” —The Guardian (UK)

“In this world of glitter-coated, fake-eye lashed, Mandopop divas, Jasmine Chen represents a rare instance of old-fashioned sophistication… Today, Chen is one of the Shanghais’ most captivating performers.” — That’s Shanghai Magazine (China)

Jasmine Chen is a jazz musician and songwriter, based in Shanghai, China. Born into a family of professional folk dancers and actors, she was groomed to be a concert pianist but fell in love with jazz while studying at the prestigious Leeds College of Music in England. She returned to China in 2005 to follow this passion, bringing China’s rich musical heritage into the world of jazz.

She has since become one of China’s leading figures in the jazz scene, combining Western songs with original Chinese lyrics. Her unique perspective introduces one world to the other, bridging a gap between traditional Chinese songs and the West’s jazz legacy, and between forgotten folk songs and contemporary jazz singing. This rare talent for moving between two worlds and picking the best of what they have to offer has gained her a strong following from both Chinese and western audiences, and she has charmed audiences everywhere from the intimate stage of Shanghai’s JZ Club to the big lights of
Rotterdam’s Northsea Jazz Festival.

Jasmine is currently working on her new Chinese jazz album, together with Danish jazz musician Nikolaj Hess and his trio, recorded in Copenhagen Denmark. This album is going
to be released by the end of 2018.

In 2017, Jasmine joined Hollywood Warner Brother film “Crazy Rich Asians” directed by Jon M. Chu, she both performed and recorded soundtracks for the movie. The movie will be in cinema from 17th August 2018.
