The Graeme Norris Sextet

The Graeme Norris Sextet will perform at JMI Live on July 23 2026. The show will feature original compositions by Graeme, as well as pieces by Cole Porter, Sonny Rollins, Jobim and Thelonious Monk. Graeme will share the stage with expert fellow contributors Travis Jenkins, Lachlan Alexander, Eden Armstrong, Elliott Parker and Chris Evans.

The six piece ensemble, expanded from the standard quartet, will explore varied textures and backgrounds, and multiple soloists. Having returned to Brisbane after a decade residing in New York, Graeme Norris now teaches saxophone and improvisation at JMI. “More Please”, recorded in New York and released on Gut String Records, was reviewed by Eric Meyers in the Australian as “modern jazz, beautifully played”.
