ARIA-nominated ALLY presents global music drawn from Afro-Peruvian, Cuban, Afro-Brazilian and Andalusian traditional rhythms paired with a modern jazz aesthetic and spoken word. AND because they know Port Kembla loves to dance, they'll be performing a set of Cuban rumba and son for you to shake those hips!

Live performances are marked with high energy and experimentalism. Critics John Shand said, “ALLY never quite lets your expectations settle.” Jessica Nicholas described the ensemble live as a “fascinating amalgam of styles and cultures”. Professor John Whiteoak’s experienced “the inexhaustibly inventive Gai Bryant at Melbourne’s Paris Cat backed by Latin rhythm and other accompaniment of astonishing virtuosity, textual density and distinctiveness.”
