Exciting new talent, cellist and composer Darcy Gilkerson, is playing Newcastle at The Grand, for a special 1 night only on the 21st of September! Darcy is launching his recently released debut album ‘Acteon’ touring with his band up the East Coast from Melbourne. The album is the culmination of a long period of experimentation and exploration in coupling together classical compositional techniques and jazz improvisation. Darcy's music explores themes of self-discovery, empowerment, queer love and the ever-present ebb and flow between pain and joy.
Darcy and his band have played at many venues across Melbourne including Jazzlab, Wesley Anne Tempo Rubato, Paris Cat, Longplay and the Brunswick Green, playing his original works. Using his skills as a performer, teacher and composer, Darcy’s goal is to invite his audience into a musical conversation and to engage in an exchange of emotion between performer and listener.
Darcy will be supported by local legends BLEU COLLECTIVE, a Newcastle based band performing alternative jazz fusion.
