„Songstress Niki Vörös is not one of the many young singers who, having finished at the jazz faculty, sell out immediately for understandable financial reasons. She is a true jazz singer, the real thing, who is capable of turning almost any material into high quality jazz.
Her slightly smoky voice fits the tradition, she improvises with startling originality but with due restraint. Her debut album is a knock-out. One of the most amazing things about the quartet was their first ever appearance last year at the BJC where they drew a capacity crowd and brought the house down!
Since then she’s had the audience spellbound with local backing at London’s legendary 606 Club. Niki sings from the heart and is on the same wavelength with her musicians who are László Vörös on piano, Tibor Csuhaj-Barna on double bass and György Jeszenszky on drums.”
