Event Details

Harry Mitchell is releasing his second album with some of Australia’s best and most in demand jazz musicians.

After selling out his last two shows off the back of winning a Bell award for Young Australian jazz musician of the year as well as WAM song of the year, this gig is sure to be one to check out. Come and see what the newest in Australian/Perth jazz has to offer.

“Harry seems to be playing and composing with advanced maturity way beyond his years. Each piece has an utterly contemporary narrative defined by the talents of each band member and built on the tradition of post hard bop.” - Peter Wockner – Jazzandbeyond.com

Harry Mitchell is one of these luminary artists who can’t help making their presence felt. He’s been doing exactly that, since he started playing jazz piano (at 13), getting the chance to perform with the ‘who-is-who’ of Australian Jazz, not to mention icons such as Hank Marvin and a certain drummer called Charlie Watts. In the meantime, he has been evolving as a composer, creating music that bursts with energy and fervor. - Nik Fotakis – Australianjazz.net
