Irresistible Brazilian rhythms, sweet jazz harmonies and a whole lotta groove, get to the Duke of George to hear classic tunes by Brazilian superstar Sergio Mendes!

Making his name back in the 1960s with his group Sergio Mendes & Brasil ’66, he went on to become the undisputed master of pop-inflected Brazilian Jazz.

Listening to hit tunes like Mas Que Nada and Ultima Batucada, you’ll be whisked away to the 60s and 70s to bossa nova cool and then get grooving in your seat (or on your feet!) to the infectious rhythms of Brazil.

Sergio Mendes is a prodigious arranger, composer and musician, and this show dedicated to his music highlights his incredible legacy.

Guaranteed you’ll leave shuffling the samba, with an infectious grin!

Featuring an all-star line-up:

Victoria Newton – vocals
Georgie Aué – vocals/piano
Joshua DeSilva – guitar
Karl Florisson – bass
Ben Vanderwal – drums

“… it was the sterling performance of Georgie Aué which made the night so unforgettable. The band played with ease and you can’t help but admire her beautiful voice, complemented by her skills as a pianist.” – 5 stars, What’s On In Adelaide

“…there was plenty to admire in the phrasing of Aué’s vocals, her light touch at the keyboard… a sterling performance”. – S Evans, Independent Weekly

Join accomplished Australian pianist, vocalist, and songwriter Georgie Aué and her incredible 9-piece band for a night of Latin American rhythms, sweet jazz harmonies and a whole lotta groove as she launches her third studio album ‘Desert Cry’.

Drawing on the artistic influences of AC Jobim, Elis Regina, Diana Krall, Stevie Wonder and Norah Jones, Georgie will serenade you with a melting pot of styles – fusing jazz and blues with Brazilian jazz – her voice the cherry on top.

The endless days of summer in Perth, the ups and downs of love in all forms of relationships, and a passion for the natural environment were all inspiration for the songs on ‘Desert Cry’ due for release on 16 September. Written and recorded over the last two years in Perth and Adelaide, this elegant record is rich in rhythm, texture, and harmony – a joy to get lost in.

No stranger to Ellington Jazz Club audiences, Georgie performs regularly in Perth, Melbourne, and Adelaide and at festivals around the country including the Adelaide Fringe Festival, Jazz By the Bay and Cabaret Fringe Festival playing to sell-out audiences with shows ‘A Norah Jones Tribute’, ‘A Day In The Life – The Beatles’ and ‘Come to Brazil’.

This album of original songs will be brought to life by some of Australia’s leading instrumentalists and long-time collaborators who are all performing at this intimate concert.
