“With her intimate style and great feel for the lyrics, Seidel is one of those vocalists who is as much a story teller as she is a singer. The way she goes about 
handling the music comes off as a blend of Blossom Dearie and Doris Day with a nod to Julie London, although she is somewhat jazzier than the latter two. David Nathan – All About Jazz.
Based in Sydney, Australia, vocalist / pianist Janet Seidel is a seasoned live performer and has 18 CDs to her name. All recorded in Australia, the CDs cover some stylistic ground from easy listening, Lounge, cabaret and Jazz content.

Internationally she has toured to other countries including UK, USA, Europe, the Middle East and many South East Asian countries.
Much of 2011-2012 was spent living the UK working all over Great Britain and also in Europe,

Janet Seidel has been described as being a “virtual institution” in her country. She is currently a music teacher at Sydney Girls High School.
“I had heard so much about this delightful jazz star from Australia, but I was still not prepared for this awesome performance. I have never been so thrilled by a performer since Barb Jungr – this lady is amazing – such pure clean vocals!” Cabaret Hotline (New York)
