Jade (jazz, soul & pop singer):
Australian R&B/soul singer Jade MacRae is also a beautiful, stylish jazz singer. Her self-titled album was nominated for an ARIA Award, and her pop songs have had chart-topping success.
Jade MacRae has shared the stage and studio with the likes of James Brown, John Legend, Ray Charles, Jimmy Barnes and Cold Chisel, Neil Finn, Dave Stewart, George Benson & Renne Geyer to name a few, and more recently Jade has become a fixture in the touring and studio band for blues guitar superstar Joe Bonamassa. In between tours, Jade is based in Sydney, Australia.
“One of the most naturally gifted musicians I have ever encountered. Jade is what you would call a singer’s singer and musician’s musician. It is rare to see the combination of soulfulness and technical dexterity meet in such a great way.”– Joe Bonamassa.

“Gladys could have saved us all a fortune by having Jade MacRae demolish the Sydney Football Stadium. One note should have done the job; such is the singer’s staggering power. Were anything left tottering, Carl Dewhurst could have napalmed it with a guitar solo. MacRae doesn’t do things by halves. Having penned a batch of songs buried deep in the R&B tradition.”- John Stand, Sydney Morning Herald. 2019.
