Sora-Jackson Duo

It started with Ewan’s seven year stint in London. After training as a session guitarist and songwriter at the British Institute of Music, he moved to Sydney, Australia. It was here that he met Mikaela, a classical pianist who had graduated from the Sydney Conservatorium of Music that same year. The two fell in love and have been inseparable ever since.

Coming from two distinct musical worlds, they first found common ground playing jazz standards. It soon became clear that they spoke the same poetic language and began to write with their duo in mind. This instrumental combination, where harmonic and melodic material can be shared, is a flexible framework to form an intimate and dynamic dialogue, a sound world that can range from bell-like to percussive. Mikaela and Ewan draw from a diverse range of stylistic influences, from impressionist and Soviet jazz schools, to the likes of Julian Lage.
