The Sarah McKenzie Quartet
“Sarah McKenzie is a musical marvel. She sings with the kind of phrasing that only a true jazz singer can come up with while her groove of the piano is the stuff that makes people want to play jazz” (James Morrison).
Pianist, vocalist, and composer Sarah McKenzie has been described as an Australian national treasure, whose album “Close Your Eyes” won ‘Best Jazz Album’ at the 2012 ARIA Awards. She has performed throughout Australia and Europe, and toured with Michael Bublé, Chris Botti, John Patitucci, and Enrico Rava.
Now based in Boston, Sarah had the honour of being invited to perform her own material with The Boston Pops at Symphony Hall. After her highly praised performances at Melbourne International Jazz Festival, the Umria Jazz Festival, The Boston Arts Festival , and Stonning Jazz Festival, she has been invited to play the Montery and Wangaratta Jazz Festivals in 2014.
Sarah just graduated from Berklee College of Music on a full tuition scholarship. Her forhcoming album, ‘We Could Be Lovers’, was produced by Brian Bacchus (Gregory Porter) and will be launched at this exclusive Sydney performance.
