Avelia writes, records & performs trumpet and vocal music, under a rainbow of jazz & other musical influences, sharing her take on life to connect with her audience.
A professional trumpet player, who has always loved to sing, Avelia now combines the two … and has added songwriting into the bargain. She thrives on the diversity of genres that she has performed – from a basis of classical music, followed by jazz, and on to soca, Latin, funk, South African township, function bands – and these naturally influence her writing.
Avelia was delighted with the headline “Avelia Moisey is Authentic Originality” in an interview by Debbie Burke, jazz author, in 2021.
“Trumpet is what I do – it is a part of me.
Singing has always been with me.
Songwriting … I wished I could but thought only “others” did.
It’s taken a while, but in the last few years I’ve discovered that songwriting is something I can do, and enjoy … and other people like the result, which is even better!”
