Full Biography

Highlights
* A highly talented vocalist/pianist who is based in the North West.
* Diverse repertoire which covers everything from 1930's Jazz, to 1960's soul, to Lounge versions of current hits!
* Available as a duo with additional Jazz Guitar (please see booking options).

Please note: Helena's set is more suitable for daytime drinks receptions and wedding breakfasts, rather than evening entertainment.

Helena has been performing at events for 15 years, entertaining a range of exclusive clients in unique locations—from a private yacht in French Polynesia to the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel in Mumbai, and even the local Lowry Hotel.

Her diverse setlists cover a wide variety of artists, ensuring there’s always something for everyone. She also loves learning request songs, particularly those that present the challenge of a new language. So far, she has performed in Italian, French, German, and Japanese.

Throughout her musical career, Helena has achieved significant milestones. She is a member of two bands—The Retrosettes and The Horse Puppets—both of which have toured Europe supporting Simply Red. Additionally, The Retrosettes were featured in the film Youth, alongside Michael Caine and Paul Dano.

Alongside her work with bands, Helena takes great joy in performing for ceremonies, helping to make each couple’s special day even more memorable. She welcomes enquiries and looks forward to discussing how she can bring music to any occasion.

A great accidental choice - and we've booked her again!!!

5 stars - Helena Williams are Highly Recommended
booked Helena Williams for their event February 2025

“Helena saved the night when we were let down right at the last minute by the booked singer for our first event of the year. With hours to spare, Helena committed to working the same evening, arriving in a timely manner with a fabulously kind and professional attitude. She was fresh faced and ready to give it her all. Her repertoire was varied, up to date and with insanely good vocals to match. Our event was a Parisian theme and she even went the extra mile by addressing our guests in French. A few French songs were thrown in for good measure and her engagement with the team and our customers was just prefect. Her work ethic should also be mentioned. First and foremost, once booked, Helena is there to work. She offered a long set list and didn't need anything at all - just got on with it! A great accidental choice - and we've booked her again!!!”


We would 100% book her again.

booked Helena Williams for their event

“We absolutely loved having Helena sing at our wedding reception. She very kindly sung me down the aisle which was just magical and something we will never forget. She has an incredible voice! We especially loved the older songs like Nina Simone etc and more live lounge style songs. All of our guests commented on how wonderful her voice was. We would 100% book her again. Thank you for making our day so memorable and beautiful! Love Helen and Dougal x”
