Event Details
Sydney’s internationally acclaimed world/jazz ensemble Mara! features several Sydney jazz giants and is led by world music powerhouse Llew Kiek and Mara Kiek, who are co-artistic and musical directors of Mara! and Martenitsa Choir. Following on from their hugely successful debut for SIMA last year, SIMA is pleased to welcome them back to the Sound Lounge. With a unique musical style that melds folk, modern jazz, rock, early music, Anglo-Celtic, Middle Eastern, Balkan and Mediterranean traditions, the band clearly deserves the ARIA wins and nominations gained for their last four CD releases and the critical praise they regularly receive for their performances. Mara! have carved an indelible mark on the Australian music scene over nearly three decades – their virtuosity is breathtaking. Come and experience it for yourself...
