Reece Clark & Friends are back at it again after a sly hiatus, inviting you to an evening of whimsy, filled with musical storytelling and wonder. The night will be a collection of some of our favourite tunes and fresh new sounds to delight the ears and whet the palate for many gigs to come.
This big small band, renowned for their dynamically rich and offbeat interpretations of pop and jazz standards, seamlessly navigates between the familiar and the avant-garde. Their affection for classic pop lyrics and contemporary harmonies is a testament to the band’s commitment to evolving sounds. Drawing inspiration from a diverse mix of artists such as Count Basie, Jacob Collier, Whitney Houston and Matt Carmichael – and many more – the result is a musical odyssey that defies expectation and categorisation.
Each tune not only showcases the band’s prowess, but becomes a stepping stone, a musical journey into uncharted territories. From killer musicianship to harmonising in nine parts, the night promises an immersive experience that beckons you to join Reece Clark & Friends on an adventure not to be missed. It’s not just a concert; it’s an invitation to venture into the unknown, fuelled by the harmonious fusion of tradition and innovation.
With the Perth International Jazz Festival right around the corner, this will be the perfect soft Sunday evening to get you ready for what promises to be a wild ride.
