For one spectacular night, Ben Shelley and friends take to The Bird, promising thrilling and prodigious original jazz! Ben has spent the last 12 months studying music in the United States, taking in the magic of New England and learning from Grammy winners, Jazz Messengers, and the torch-bearers of New York jazz. This is a rare opportunity to catch an artist in transition before he returns to the States for another year. Ben is joined by some of Perth's finest and supported by Zoe Boyd (quintet). Be there!
