Don your finest and book your tix for an uplifting, fun and soulfully entertaining show of beautiful music.
Interstate Singer, Songwriter & Cabaret performer, Jen de Ness and fellow composer/guitarist Bill Atkinson are delighted to return to the Ellington once again with their Perth Septet. Featuring some of the coolest jazz/blues/Latin and contemporary musicians in OZ, you can expect the Septet’s signature blend of smooth original jazz/blues, sultry bossa nova, beautiful ballads, soul-filled grooves, and a dash of jazz cabaret.
We will share the love with well-known covers of Cole Porter, Hamilton, Peggy Lee and Ray Charles, Van Morrison, Norah Jones and Carole King, alongside soul-filled originals to smile and groove to.
You can expect a show filled with much love, joy and celebration of life through music and storytelling with a hot swingin’ band!
