Mazz Rhodes

Description

Mazz Rhodes - Little Girl Big Voice has been performing since the age of 13. Now 25 years down the line she has performed with the likes of some of Kent's best function bands. As a soloist Mazz likes to cater for each venue differently, tailoring each gig to the audience. Her powerful, warm, and earthy rock vocal sound mixed with her happy, jokey personality make for an engaging performance. She may be small in stature, but her voice is ‘bigger than the person’. Mazz’s repertoire spans a great selection of rock, pop, soul, funk and jazz from 60s to current chart hits.
