Wāhine Wednesday: Lauren Armstrong and Jacqui Nyman

An evening of jazz standards in a laid back, duo setting. Featuring Lauren Armstrong on vocals and Jacqui Nyman on guitar.

Lauren Armstrong’s voice is influenced by the style and character of 1920s New Orleans. She performs regularly in Wellington, leading a few of her own ensembles and working alongside many local luminaries in the New Zealand jazz scene.

Jacqui Nyman is a very active member of Wellington’s music scene and can be heard playing a range of different styles with bands such as Sulco d’Alma, Lisa Tomlins and the Presidents of Funk, Joe Blossom, Fraser Ross, Ultrasounz and Afrokan.
