  Jacqui Dankworth 4 September 2004  
Following in her famous parents' musical footsteps

Being the child of a legendary musician can be both a blessing and a curse, especially if that child also decides to pursue a musical career. So imagine then what it must be like to be the child of not one but two musical greats.

Jacqui Dankworth is the daughter of Dame Cleo Laine and Sir John Dankworth - one of the most celebrated partnerships in jazz. But, far from being daunted by her parents' success she's forging a career as a singer herself.

Jacqui talk to Martha about her career and her new album, Detour Ahead. 

Jacqui's CD Detour Ahead is available on the Candid label
