Jazz Upstairs is proud to present the 'Alister Spence Trio'.

Formed in Sydney more than twenty-five years ago this trio brings together three of the most exciting, innovative, and experienced musicians in Australia. The trio enjoy a strong national and international reputation; having long been recognised for their engaging, distinctive, original compositions, and for the high level of energy and interplay demonstrated in their performances.

Spellbinding!

'The music they create may be built on Spence’s masterful compositions, but it’s driven by a collective energy that gives every phrase – and each musical interaction – a marvellously organic feel.’ Jessica Nicholas, the Age

DISTINCTIVE AND DYNAMIC

Alister Spence - piano, samples

Lloyd Swanton - double bass

Toby Hall - drums, glockenspiel

The Alister Spence Trio released their eighth album, Gather, in February 2025.

Don't miss this unforgettable night of music!

'Art that allows us to be other than who we are, even for a moment, is invaluable…Mesmerising.' John Shand, Sydney Morning Herald
