Doors @ 6:30, music @ 7pm

Jamie Holmes QUARTET was assembled to explore the intersection between the evolving songbook of contemporary New York jazz and an Australian musical identity. Featuring music by personal heroes including Immanuel Wilkins and Chris Potter alongside Jamie’s own compositions, written in dialogue with these influences, the quartet brings together intricate rhythmic and harmonic structures, lyrical melodies and a deep connection to the jazz tradition.
