Olivia Cuttill

Additional information

Olivia Cuttill, award winning London based Jazz trumpet player, composer and lyricist, comes to you with her all star quintet. Heavily influenced by the sounds of New Orleans. Inspired by Louis Armstrong and Dr John and the song writing of Nina Simone and Randy Newman, her sound is rich with soul. Olivia’s music is full of story telling, from a phone call with the insurance man, to sentimental family tales. Being a third generation musician, raised with music all around her, jazz and blues are deeply rooted in Olivia’s heritage.

After graduating from Leeds Conservatoire, Olivia’s career boomed! With two albums released (The Whole Damn Plan 2024 and …And Writing And Singing And Tunes To Be Swingin’ 2025) the band have toured the UK and Europe, playing prestigious venues such as Ronnie Scott’s, Duc Des Lombards Paris, South Bank Centre and across the UK Jazz festival scene. Awarded with the APPJAG Martin Hummel Award 2025, Presto Music’s Best Newcomer 2025, Peter Whitingham Award 2024, Olivia’s is recognised as “one of the best new trumpeters to emerge on the British jazz scene over the past decade” by Jazzwise and a “delicious blend of jazz and blues” by Forbes.
