Olivia Chindamo - Vocals
Matthew Sheens - Piano
Australian-born, New York-based duo Olivia Chindamo and Matthew Sheens return to Australia to launch their second album, Putting It Together.
Both members of this captivating duo are groundbreaking artists in their own right. Humbly delivering incredible vocal technique and a keen attention to vocal storytelling, Chindamo made history as the first-ever jazz voice graduate at The Juilliard School, receiving her Masters degree in 2021. She has performed extensively across North America, Mexico, Europe, and Australia, including at venues such as The Kennedy Center, Dizzy’s Club, and Lincoln Center. Most recently Olivia has toured with world-renowned conductor Alondra de la Parra in Gershwin La Vida en Azul performing the role of Kay Swift alongside Broadway luminaries Robbie Fairchild and Sara Esty and critically acclaimed pianist Thomas Enhco.
Sheens is a genre-defying voice himself on the keys, performing with some of modern jazz’s most important figures: John Patitucci, Eric Harland, Jerry Bergonzi, Myron Walden, Ben Wendel, and others. He's written for the Adelaide Symphony, and the Czech National Symphony, and his album 'American Counterpoint' was awarded Work of the Year at the 2018 APRA Art Music Awards. He will be releasing his 6th album of original music with Endectomorph Records in 2027.
In this joint effort, the two deliver what they call a “democratically curated collection of forgotten Great American Songbook gems, masterfully reworked classics and original composition.”
