As the youngest signing to Candid Records in a multi-record deal, Mishka Adams is already a name to look out for and has been compared to legendary vocalists from the golden era of the American Popular Songbook.
The British-Filipina singer was snapped up by the label following a guest appearance at a British Council-sponsored 'Jazz in Time ' concert (featuring Courtney Pine), after a show-stealing performance of 'God Bless the Child'.
The current album 'God Bless the Child ' highlights her individual approach to standards, incorporating world music and African-reggae inspired beats into her originals.
'the sensuality of Astrud Gilberto and an enticing warmth ' (John Coleman - Talent Watch).
