Details

Multi-award-winning vocalist extraordinaire Jazzmeia Horn’s name speaks for itself—with her stunning vocals, inspired scatting and irresistible vivacity, Horn is redefining jazz tradition.

Drawing on her love for iconic singers of the 1950s and ‘60s such as Nina Simone and Sara Vaughan, but with a sound that is completely her own, Horn’s live shows are renowned for leaving audiences spellbound, as she showcases her impressive verbal acrobatics and idiosyncratic charm. As one reviewer aptly put it, ‘there is nothing like a live performance that leaves you speechless, elated and buoyant; the virtuosity and creativity exuded by Jazzmeia Horn did exactly that’ (Isolated Nation).

Performing material from her latest release Messages, this performance marks Horn’s highly anticipated Melbourne debut, and her first Australian show since the rising star wowed sold-out crowds at the 2019 Perth Festival. Five years on, her star has well and truly risen—and Horn has cemented her standing as the present, past and future of jazz.
