The Lady Killers

A-list line up of superb lady singers available for after dinner shows, conference dinners, awards nights, festivals, corporate functions and events.

Based in Auckland New Zealand.
Available locally and internationally.

The Lady Killers is a dream team of New Zealand’s finest female singers and entertainers. From a whisper to a scream and everything in between, these divas make beautiful music dripping in harmony

.

The Lady Killers belongs to the grand vocal harmony tradition spanning gospel to the girl group, power pop to R&B, with a little bit of rock thrown in for good measure. The show is a wild ride through music history. It’s sophisticated glamour and a dazzling vocal tour de force all rolled into one gorgeous super duper deluxe package. But the Spice Girls they ain’t. For a start they’re not girls, they’re women. They’re well seasoned professionals doing what they do best – singing from the heart and soul.

Featuring Jackie Clarke, Suzanne Lynch, Taisha and Tina Cross

The Icon
Suzanne Lynch
grew up in front of the country as one half of the seminal pop duo The Chicks. She then took to the world stage working with Cat Stevens, Neil Sedaka, Cleo Lane, Lulu, the Walker Bros, Charles Aznavour, Olivia Newton John and Leo Sayer – to name a few. She even sang BVs on the original recording of Kung Fu Fighting – how cool is that! Her successful solo career includes TV, recordings, touring and a three-season stint as the vocal coach on NZ Idol. Suzanne Lynch is a former recipient of the NZ Entertainer of the Year award and in 2001 was awarded the MNZM. She is the ultimate singer’s singer, much loved and respected by everyone in the industry and in 2006 released her first solo album in 20 years, Colour of Summer. Suzanne is currently putting hopeful contestants through their paces on the NZ season of Stars in Their Eyes.

The Diva
Tina Cross
is a pop princess turned musical theatre star at the very top of her game. As a recording artist, Tina conquered the charts on both sides of the Tasman. As an entertainer she’s worked in New Zealand, Australia, the UK and Asia and appeared with Sammy Davis Jnr, Tom Jones and Meatloaf. In musical theatre Ms Cross has triumphed in lead roles in Chicago, Once Were Warriors, Boogie Nights, The Rocky Horror Show, Cats and the Australian production of Sisterella. Tina Cross also plays a mean ukulele! Most recently Tina received the ONZM and had us all on the edge of our seats watching her pasa doble, cha cha and waltz on Dancing With The Stars 2008. The critics sum it up: “magnificent and mesmerizing’ (The Age, Melbourne).

The Chameleon
