Tricity Vogue is a cabaret jazz singer who describes her signature style as "cheeky jazz", or "Peggy Lee after a few too many cocktails". Tricity has been performing live in London, UK, since 2004, singing vintage-style tongue-in-cheek songs about her romantic misadventures, and has become a regular performer on London's flourishing cabaret and burlesque scene. Tricity sometimes performs with a full band, sometimes with a smaller line-up, and sometimes solo with her small pink ukelele.

The full seven piece "Tricity Vogue Slinktet" consists of Tricity Vogue and her partner-in-crime Honey Mink on vocals and ukeleles, Sir Fitzroy Callow on trombone, Connie Vanderlay on Piano, Earl Mysterio on Guitar, Trousers Mercedes on Bass and Bobby Fresh on Drums.
The ensemble's music harks back to the 30s, 40s and 50s, and is inspired by sounds from past eras, rather than faithful to one period alone. Their repertoire is eclectic, encompassing jazz, lounge, blues, latin and swing influences. Many of their songs are original tunes written and arranged to sound vintage in style, with lyrics that play up to the singers' vamp image, while at the same time reflecting a more modern romantic sensibility.
