The Grapevines are an immensely popular Musical Jazz Duo. They are two fine musicians, professional singer Carl Buckley and keyboard whizz John Murphy. They play music that some might even call songcraft's real golden age: that of the character of Frank Sinatra, the warmth of Nat 'King' Cole, the romantic genius of arrangers like Nelson Riddle and Billy May, and of course the wit of lyricists like Ira Gershwin and Sammy Cahn.

"A scintillating experience that still causes the hairs on the back of this neck to misbehave"

In detail

When professional singer Carl Buckley met keyboard whizz John Murphy way back in 2000, the two discovered a mutual love for the classic songs and singers of the past: Stevie Wonder, Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, Ray Charles... the list goes on. It was this shared passion that led them on a fascinating journey together with hot soul bands and all sorts of entertainment functions, a journey about which pages have already been - and continue to be written as The Grapevines.

What they offer you

The Grapevines are daringly ambitious in pulling off the bulk of a repertoire originally designed for big bands and orchestras. Their appearances are memorable for Carl Buckley's commanding tenor trades lines with John Murphy's bubbling (but always tasteful) piano in a way that seems almost effortless.

How they present

The Grapevines duo are available for corporate dinners, receptions or launches, singing lounge and 'swing' classics from Sinatra to Dean Martin.
