Mina Johansson - tenor saxophone
Aidan Eccleshall - piano & electronics
Saskia Shearer - percussion

Dog Tooth is an emerging experimental jazz ensemble based in Sydney/Eora. Deeply rooted in their experimental and collaborative practice, the group develops co-composed segments with ambient soundscapes, deep grooves and unconventional timbral textures woven in their work. The music moves fluidly through different sections, creating a continuous narrative. Featuring Aidan Eccleshall, Saskia Shearer, Jarrah Henderson Jackson and Mina Johansson. Dog Tooth will present Good Night Moon.

Dog Tooth has presented their work across contemporary art and music contexts, including two performances at the Museum of Contemporary Art as part of artist Cerith Wyn Evans’ exhibition opening. The group was also selected to perform in Backstage Music’s Midnight Static concert series, supporting emerging and experimental artists. The ensemble has received support through the Contemporary Music Development - Industry Development grant, enabling a regional tour through Harden and Young, NSW, contributing to the presentation of experimental and improvised music in regional Australia. With a commitment to collaboration and process, Dog Tooth continues to explore new approaches and sounds within Australia’s experimental jazz landscape.

Also playing tomorrow, the fantastic trio project of Sydney-based vocalist Katrina Todd, TO BE A BAY!

Katrina Todd - vocals
Hilary Geddes - guitar
Tom Botting - bass

Drawing inspiration from salty landscapes and memories, Katrina Todd’s (vocals) project ‘To be a Bay,’ explores shifting light upon water, the pull of a siren’s song and the cycle and flow of heartbreak.

Joined by the grounded and intuitive playing of Hilary Geddes (guitar) and Tom Botting (bass), To be a Bay weaves a mesmerising line between jazz and folk with a through-line of personal storytelling.

We’re back! Kicking off our new season, we’ll be joined by KYLE CHENOWETH touring from Melbourne!

Kyle Chenoweth - trombone
Oscar Bruten - tenor saxophone
Miro Mauritz - piano
Jack Smythe - double bass
Miles Farnon - drums

Trombonist Kyle Chenoweth formed his quintet out of an exploration during his Honours year at the Victorian College of the Arts into how visual stimuli can inspire and shape musical ideas. The band released their debut album Perspectives, featuring Chenoweth’s original compositions, launched last November at The Jazzlab in Melbourne and has since taken the project to Adelaide (COMA), performed across Melbourne, and continued developing new collaborative and original work.

The group will present new compositions by Chenoweth alongside music from Perspectives, further expanding on the sound that defines the project, with a contemporary approach informed by artists such as Immanuel Wilkins and Barney McAll.

The quintet features Chenoweth alongside some of Melbourne’s most exciting emerging musicians: Oscar Bruten (tenor saxophone), Miro Lauritz (piano), Jack Smythe (double bass), and Miles Farnan (drums).
