Jessie Gordon Trio
Description
“She is a consummate performer with the trick of imparting intimacy. In a crowded club, she sings just for you and you and she are alone in a world of glorious sound and nostalgia.
By turns she made us laugh, listen enraptured and turn one’s heart over with pathos and thoughts of times past. It doesn’t hurt that she’s tall, beautiful and statuesque, but most of all – outrageously talented.” Weekend Notes – Fringe World
Jessie is a very sun-shy Perth based red-headed singer and songwriter who brings her love of old world roots music into the 21st Century. She has toured Australia, America, South East Asia, Germany, France, Spain, Poland and the UK. She is also a 20 time Fringe World Music and Cabaret Award winner. Her original music is a combination of soulful blues, harmonic gospel and joyful swinging country.
She has also recorded nine albums, including two with Mark Turner (Best Friends 2019 and Live at Kidogo 2021), an original album (A Work of Friction 2018), two intercontinental albums entitled Berlin Nights (2017) and Unknowable Journey (2020) with Berlin band Ginger Blues, the latter of which won the German Blues Award for 2020, and most recently the eponymous Sassafras (2021).
Come and delight in a night of exceptional music with talented musicians and Jessie’s rich, amazing voice and bubbly, delightful stage persona. Doors open at 7pm and the performance starts at 8pm. Restricted to age 18+.
