Town Hall concert:
*Cigany Weaver – Gypsy Jazz/ Swing
7.00pm – 8.15pm
Fusing the passion of folk music, the precision of classical, and the spontaneity of jazz, Cigány Weaver create a rich and vibrant atmosphere for both the heart and mind. Front woman, Jo Davie’s soaring vocals and enchanting gentle demeanour combine with the fiery violin, dynamic guitars and driving rhythm section to create a purely acoustic group that effortlessly navigates the musical nexus between intimacy and raucousness.
*Big Kitty – Rhythm & Blues, Jazz, Swing
8.45pm – 10.00pm
An explosion of hot sultry smokin’ jazz, rhythm ‘n blues and boogie, Big Kitty and her merry band of ne’er-do-well boys have been lifting the roof off jump joints and shakin’ the shoes off fevered crowds since 2004. With an ensemble of some of the finest musicians in Queensland, roots planted in jazz and blues, and the occasional tongue planted firmly in cheek, this audacious 6-piece live act features the incomparable Big Kitty on searing vocals and a seasoned crew of fine musicians on double bass, drums, guitar and horns.
