Singer / pianist Lionel Robinson comes from London, where he began his professional career as the resident pianist in Elton John's restaurant, "Friends", Lionel has toured extensively in the UK & Europe and even played for several members of the Royal Family.
He has a style of his own. The sound he describes as “a blend of cocktail jazz and Latin lounge, definitely very sixties.” Lionel combines original material with cool classics from the likes of Sinatra, Bacharach and Jobim.
Since coming to Australia sixteen years ago his engaging style and easy rapport with audiences have earned him residencies and return engagements at numerous venues including the Sheraton Mirage (Port Douglas), Kingfisher Bay (Fraser Island), the Ritz-Carlton Osaka (Japan), Pinetrees (Lord Howe Island), the Intercontinental, the Sheraton on the Park, the Park Hyatt, the Basement, Star City, Café Sydney and the Manly, Thredbo & Noosa Jazz Festivals.
