PERTH INTERNATIONAL JAZZ FESTIVAL AT THE ELLINGTON JAZZ CLUB
25TH OCTOBER – 2ND NOVEMBER
Experience one of Australia’s most exciting new jazz pianists.
Melbourne-based pianist James O’Brien has rapidly emerged as a rising star of the Australian jazz scene. With a sound that is both inventive and deeply rooted in jazz tradition, James has already performed alongside luminaries including Kate Ceberano, Dick Oatts, Remy Le Boeuf, Jamie Oehlers, Mat Jodrell, Sam Anning, and Gian Slater.
A graduate of WAAPA and a regular feature at leading festivals across the country, James now brings his dynamic quintet to the stage for a very special one-night-only performance.
The evening will mark the live launch of O’Brien’s stunning new suite, Toward Dawn — a powerful exploration of change, resilience, and self-discovery, inspired by his move to Melbourne. Each movement captures the journey of navigating life’s transitions with courage and creativity, offering audiences a profound and deeply moving musical experience.
Don’t miss this chance to witness a bold new voice in Australian jazz at the height of his artistry. Book now for an unforgettable night of modern jazz.
