Sydney International Women's Jazz Fest: Nine to Five - Leonie Cohen & Nicky Crayson Quartet

Pianist Leonie Cohen and vocalist Nicky Crayson are two of Australia’s finest jazz musicians. Their first performance together in 2015 revealed a beautiful musical connection and a mutual ardour for jazz standards and 80s tunes, eventuating in their band “Nine To Five”. Be prepared for Gershwin, Porter, Dolly, Prince and a bunch of originals (featured in the Australian Jazz Real Book).
