Cameron Jones - Guitar
The dazzling guitarist, composer, educator and the esteemed OzManouche festival director channels the vibrancy of authentic manouche jazz through his Selmer-style guitar, intertwining percussive rhythms with bright, expressive melodies. His annual pilgrimages to Europe, retracing Django Reinhardt's footsteps, garnered him unparalleled mentorship, enriching his repertoire with a rare depth of authenticity. In his performances across Australia, Jones captivates audiences with original narratives, infusing each piece with the unpredictable allure of gypsy jazz, keeping listeners on the edge with dangerously spontaneous improvisations.

Oscar Peterson - Double Bass
Perhaps a product of nominative determinism, Oscar Peterson is a musician & composer living and working on Gadigal & Dharawal land. He works as a double bassist, electric bassist, guitarist, drummer, composer, arranger & musical director in Sydney & across Australia.
