Guitarist Matt Hoyne brings a unique lineup to the Jazzlab to present a night of new original music and some choice covers. Featuring a collection of Melbourne’s most exciting young and established improvisers, the music will be swinging, melodic and adventurous. These tunes are designed to be played by a rotating group of artists, with the personalities and sounds of each performer at the fore. Matt Hoyne is quickly creating a name for himself as one of Australia’s finest young jazz guitarists and is currently nominated for the 2022 Freedman Fellowship awards. Playing with the idea of the classic jazz sextet, the group pays tribute to the African American jazz tradition while drawing lots of inspiration from contemporary Australian music....
