Tessie Overmyer Quintet – Wednesday, 26th of April 2023:

Tessie Overmyer has established herself as one of the most exciting, dynamic saxophone players in the Australian jazz scene, rapidly gaining recognition for a maturity that appears well beyond her years.

Tessie recently completed her studies at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, and has performed with the likes of Mike Nock, Andrea Keller, Will Vinson, Barney McCall, and Sandy Evans, and has appeared at numerous festivals including, the Wangaratta Festival of Jazz and Blues (Vic), the Sydney Conservatorium International Jazz Festival (NSW), and the Perth International Jazz Festival (WA).

Tessie will be joined by good friends Ben Devries on tenor saxophone, Matt Harris on piano, Oscar Peterson on bass, and George Greenhill on drums. They will be playing a combination of original compositions by band members and tunes from the broader modern jazz repertoire.

Expect good grooves, lush melodies, and high-energy improvisations from this exciting collective of young musicians.
