Jetty Swart, who pronounces her first name "Yeti", was born in the port of Amsterdam, spent half a life-time in France before landing in San Francisco. She found an accordion on her way from Prague to Berlin, passing by New York and Mexico. She sings most of her songs in French, speaks English, dreams in Dutch and calls her music "a punk-style gypsy party where Nina Hagen, Edith Piaf and Kurt Weill meet." From playing on the streets in the south of France to performances at the Francophonic Festival in Poland, Jetty is hilarious, engaging, dramatic, energetic, touching and thoroughly original.

After receiving her masters degree, Anne resumed her original career plan, landing a gig with a local quintet, where she met her future husband, pianist Tom Zink.
With her wealth of vocal knowledge, Anne began teaching voice to other aspiring singers. She was soon hired at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in Los Angeles; a college for the performing arts, and currently resides there on the faculty, all the while holding on to the dream she had back in Worcester to create her own sound by heading up her own band, and taking control of her musical journey.
Presently, among gigs at the Long Beach Carpenter Center, Mckinney Theatre, and various clubs including Spaghettini's, Anne is touring nationally and internationally. Her 2009 release "Pretty World," received a Grammy nomination in the category "best arrangement for singer." "Pretty World" includes the music of such jazz luminaries as Keith Jarrett, Sergio Mendez, and Don Grolnick.
Carrying on in a contemporary jazz vein, Anne is soon to release her next CD - an eclectic soundscape of contemporary and brazilian jazz influences, which features originals, as well as a new take on the classic Wayne Shorter tune "Go".
