Here's a blurb about this unmissable show:
“It’s the quality of the music – a compelling mixture of Scandinavian folk, classical and jazz influences – that really compels. It’s a wonder and a pleasure to watch a band able to conjure such a dark, introspective feeling in the room.” (Limelight Magazine)
Impossible to pigeonhole, Elysian Fields is Australia's only electric viola da gamba band. (The viola da gamba is a 7-string instrument with frets about the same size as the cello.) With members drawn from amongst the finest Australian jazz, classical and world music artists, they have appeared at classical and jazz festivals, broadcast on Australian Digital Concert Hall, and been favourably reviewed in jazz, folk and classical music publications.
Founded by Jenny Eriksson (pictured right), and jazz luminaries Matt McMahon (piano) and Matt Keegan (horns), the backbone of Elysian Fields’ set list consists of original works written for the line-up by McMahon, Keegan and Eriksson along with arrangements and originals by singer/violinist, Susie Bishop, bassist Brett Hirst, and drummer Dave Goodman. The band’s covers range widely from Eriksson’s arrangements of several songs by baroque viola da gamba virtuoso, Marin Marais,to charts and folk song arrangements by Susie Bishop and Jenny Eriksson reflecting Jenny’s Scandinavian heritage, The band has released two albums on the MOVE Records label, ‘What Should I say’ and ‘FIKA,’ with a third album currently in post-production.
The "New Horizons" tour features new music from the band's soon to be released album blended with their extensive back catalogue of stunning arrangements and original compositions. The tour will premiere a new song by First Nations’ musician and composer, Troy Russell.
