In this special concert, Antipodes reimagines hymns for jazz quintet, featuring the vocal talents of Hannah Griffin.
Antipodes is a collective of New Zealand and Australian jazz musicians playing original compositions that emphasise melody, emotive soundscapes, and an open improvisational aesthetic. The music draws from diverse influences – modern New York jazz meets Swedish indie pop and European free improvised music. Audiences are first drawn in by introspective, timbral improvisations and then set to foot-tapping with danceable beats, songlike melodies and fiery solos. Hot off the back of an extensive tour celebrating the release of their debut studio album "Good Winter", Antipodes returns to New Zealand to surprise, confound, soothe and delight audiences.
"Antipodes hits the mark on a number of levels. Firstly the writing is superb. The musicianship is also great but for me, it is the communication of a shared vision that lifts them above the ordinary." - John Fenton - Jazz Local 32
Hannah Griffin is a Wellington-based vocalist who is known for her work with Norman Meehan, putting the words of some of Aotearoa's best-loved poets to song.
"Hannah Griffin’s vocals have just the right balance between crisp diction and decadent tone". - NZ Musician
