The release of his debut album as leader, Only Trust Your Heart (Candid 2000), was greeted with enthusiastic and universal acclaim. His follow up CD, Brazilian Sketches (2003), was named Jazz CD Of The Week by the Observer newspaper in the UK.


Tomlinson did not study music formally until well into his 20s. He played saxophone and ran a band as a hobby whilst studying for his degree in Politics, Philosophy and Economics at University College, Oxford. It was only after graduating and finding himself drawn to London ’s jazz scene that he enrolled at the Guildhall School Of Music in 1990. It was at the Guildhall that his musical and romantic relationship with Stacey blossomed.


Since then, Tomlinson has worked in a wide variety of groups, from Brian Ferry to experimental big band composer, Michael Garrick. His own quartet has appeared at clubs and festivals across Europe. Most recently, he has toured almost exclusively with Stacey in Europe, USA and the Far East, reserving time to perform in a quintet dedicated to the music of Lester Young with fellow saxophonist and Guildhall graduate, Mark Crooks.


When not performing, Jim shares his passion for skiing with Stacey, a sport at which they both excel. Only touring commitments in Japan in March 2006 prevented them from racing in the Nastar US Championships for which they both qualified this season.


Tomlinson’s most recent CD, The Lyric (2005) features Stacey Kent extensively and is the first release on his own record label, Token. The album recently hit the charts in Poland, France, Spain, Hong Kong and the UK. The Lyric featuring Stacey Kent has also just been awarded "Album of the Year" at the 2006 BBC Jazz Awards, announced 13th July 2006.

The Lyric will be released in the USA in September 2006.

Excelente musica. Maravilhoso mesmo.

I met the lovely Stacey Kent and Jim Tomlinson in Colchester in the UK in the 90’s after seeing them perform so beautifully. Their music can be summed up in one word: ‘saudade.’ Respect.🙏☀️🌻🎙🎷☀️🙏2021.

Great Brazilian Jazz Soundscapings...Masters !...

Great selection of classics. I hear a lot of Joe Henderson in Jim's playing and nothing wrong with that!

David Lilker

This is terrific. Thanks for uploading it, and for introducing me to the music of Jim Tomlinson.

Jim Tomlinson and Stacey Kent is the best combination in Bossa Nova. Thanks for your superb upload! You have made the current crisis a bit easier to bear. Music like this is much needed indeed. Keep on the good work.

@mistermister668 good job thank Q

Eric Reonigneaud

Japan's audience is well conversant upon bossa nova, no question. Yet, I would not venture so far as saying the duo is the best bossa nova can offer. I am speechless.
