Emma Pask ~ Live in the Lyre

Fri 12 May @ 8.00pm | Lyre Room

Award winning Australian vocalist Emma Pask has firmly established herself as one of this country’s favourite voices in Jazz.

Her effortless honest stage presence combined with her powerful vocal ability, leaves audiences spellbound and inspired. Emma is sure to delight as she interweaves storytelling through timeless swinging jazz standards, upbeat Latin rhythms, tender ballads and of course some raucous blues.

While Emma’s voice and style are unique, and individually her own, her performances are reminiscent of the classic era of jazz, when swing was top of the charts. Her talent was first spotted by internationally renowned Jazz great James Morrison when she was just 16 years old. She joined his band as the lead vocalist at 16, and went on to spend 20 years touring the world with Morrison.
