Jaki Whitrens latest album is 'Miracle Style' 1996 by her family band 'Court of Miracles'.An extremely groovy funk, jazz album written by John Cartwright on keys,electric guitars and vocs with sons Joby Baker-drums and vocs, William Cartwright-bass and Jaki Whitren main vocals and trumpet.
Eco friendly, anarchic,peace loving lyrics riding high on classy grooves played tight and mixed and produced dry.It's great!

Miracle Style distributed by Night & Day Cat No.ACT03001.

Jaki resides in rural france and is currently preparing material for her next, possibly solo, album!!Fingers crossed..

Jaki Whitren was born in 1954. She grew up in Southampton and her frist release was the self penned 'Raw But Tender' album, a singer/ songwriter country bluesy album with Jaki on vocals, banjo and acoustic guitar.The rest of the band all have beards. Stand out track the beautiful 'Give her the Day'. Jaki never went ahead with the second release with CBS. She joined forces and hearts with John Cartwright and moved out of folk into Jazz, funk, soul..and made 'International Times'. Jaki has recorded several albums all are quite difficult to get hold of now. Other releases include 'Rythmn Hymn' and more recntly 'Miracle Style'with her family Band Court of Miracles which is Jaki Whitren- Vocals/ trumpet, John Cartwright-Keys, guitars,William Cartwright- Bass, Joby Baker- Drums. This is a very funky eco friendly anarchic life loving album. Highly recommend it to anyone who likes groove. Jaki lives in South France and is currently writing her way towards a solo album.
