1 March @ Perth Concert Hall ·
Presented by Jazzmeia Horn ·

Vocalist extraordinaire Jazzmeia Horn has a name that speaks for itself. With her stunning vocals and vibrant onstage presence, she has quickly become a young star worthy of a place alongside the best headlining jazz vocalists of today.

Since winning the Thelonious Monk Competition in 2015, she has gone from triumph to triumph with her debut album earning a Grammy Award nomination for Best Jazz Vocal Album in 2018.

Drawing on her love for iconic singers of the 1950s and ’60s like Nina Simone and Sarah Vaughan, Horn has created a sound that is all her own, exhibiting an expressive range, inspired scatting and a vivacity that is infectious.

This Festival concert features jazz, soul and gospel classics performed with a swinging beat and a taste of neo-soul by an artist hailed as the future of jazz.

With a name that’s easy to remember and talent that’s impossible to forget, Jazzmeia Horn is the real deal.
