Andrew Robertson Octet ft. Tiana Young – Thursday, 6th of January, 2022:
Classic swinging ‘West Coast’ style jazz with a band of superb young and old(er) musicians. Featuring the cream of Sydney’s leading younger jazz players plus some older and wiser stalwarts of the scene!
You’ll hear the stunning vocals of Tiana Young drenched in the history of the great jazz singers, but with her own twist of interpretation. Swinging arrangements from band leader Andrew Robertson in the style of the classic West Coast writers such as Bill Holman and Marty Paich, allowing the superb improvisers in the band to stretch out.
This is the first of our gigs in this format so come and hear what will certainly become one of Sydney’s leading jazz ensembles.

- Lachlan Mackenzie (Trumpet)
- Tessie Overmyer (Alto Sax)
