Thrilled to announce that I have won the Jazz Category at the 2024 Queensland Music Awards. This was for the tune Le Baiser Salé that is a pre-release single for my upcoming album later in the year. Congratulations to all the finalists and winners. It was such a special night with an awesome community.
This took a jazz village and would not be possible without my awesome musicians/friends. Kellee Green – piano,Toby Wren – guitar, Aaron Jansz – drum set, Nick Quigley – bass, Leo McFadden – co composer/editor, Enrico Le Mura – engineer, Matthew Gray – mastering.
This composition was written for the Parisian Jazz Club Le Baiser Salé that I performed at in 2020
