“A voice as cool as a long G&T and a repertoire that balances jazz, rock and soul” – Beat Magazine
A true legend of Australian jazz, multi-ARIA-award-winning trumpeter, vocalist and songwriter Vince Jones is among the country’s most acclaimed and recognised stars. Recently celebrating 50 years in the business, the inimitable artist has left an indelible mark on the Australian jazz landscape. From creating the biggest-selling Australian jazz album of all time—1990’s swing-inspired Come in Spinner soundtrack—to performing at leading festivals across Europe and the US, Jones has cemented a reputation as a respected ambassador of Australian jazz, with 25 albums under his belt.
For this 50th anniversary celebration, Jones and his quintet will journey through a handpicked selection of songs to mark the milestone, followed by a second set where audiences are offered a rare chance to revisit Jones’ Come in Spinner soundtrack.
This special festival performance at Malvern Town Hall promises to deliver an unmissable experience for both longtime fans and the uninitiated alike.
