Laura is a household name in many parts of Europe and Asia. Many Singaporeans have her numerous Platinum and Gold records in their collections.

After pivoting from her chart-topping career in pop music with the world-famous girl group Centrefold, she went into the world of jazz and found a highly successful career there.

She has worked with the legendary French musician Michel Legrand and legendary jazz musicians Clark Terry, Johnny Griffin and the Pasadena Roof Orchestra among others.

Her latest album, “Laura Goes East”, which was released in 2020, has already achieved millions of livestreams on various platforms. The producer and music director for the album is Jazz Association (Singapore) (JASS) Executive Director and Music Director Jeremy Monteiro.

For her illustrious and successful 33-year career, Laura Fygi was appointed the Knight in the Order of Orange-Nassau in 2022 by His Majesty King Williem-Alexander of The Netherlands.

JASSO, in its short history of 5 years has already performed at the EFG London Jazz Festival, The Shanghai JZ Festival and the Jazz Education Network (JEN) Conference in Reno, Nevada where it received the Outstanding Performance Award at its debut performance in 2019.

JASSO, who is accompanying Laura, comprises top Singapore jazz professional musicians including Jeremy Monteiro, JASS Associate Music Director and pianist Chok Kerong, Shawn Letts (saxophone), Julian Chan (saxophone), Leo Jeo (trombone), Tama Goh (drums and who has also often worked with Laura), guest musicians Eddie Wen (trumpet) and guest principal trumpeter, Tom Walsh, who is amongst the best lead trumpet players in the world.
