Paul Grabowsky & Michelle Nicolle - Noir (9 October, 7PM). GENERAL ADMISSION. ticket
High demandSelling fastPaul Grabowsky & Michelle Nicolle — Noir Michelle Nicolle and Paul Grabowsky have known of each other’s work for many years. Michelle grew up watching Paul’s performances and admiring his collaborations with some of Australia’s great jazz artists, while Paul later recognised Michelle’s journey toward becoming, in his words, “one of the greatest jazz singers Australia has produced”. Their artistic conversation began around songs that moved them both — music shaped by melancholy, storytelling and the emotional depth of love’s complexities. During the Covid lockdowns, this connection developed into Noir, their acclaimed ABC Jazz album featuring timeless standards and original compositions. Together, Michelle’s extraordinary voice and Paul’s masterful piano reveal beauty in the shadows: music filled with empathy, elegance and quiet intensity. As Paul describes it, “we have found a happy place in these sad songs, in which each shadow reveals new light.”
