AVA TORCH AND THE BOYBIRDS | Starring Amie McKenna
With a voice "as smooth as a swing in a hammock" John Shand (SMH) "Excellent" Jason Blake (Sun Herald) "Adorable" Troy Lennon (Daily Telegraph)
More poised than pop but cooler than cabaret. Sweet sounds of 60’s nostalgia blend with jazz, rock and sparkling theatrical lyricism to make an effortless Torch Pop sound! You must see this band, there is really nothing like it. Flame-haired chanteuse Ava Torch (Amie McKenna recently nominated for a Sydney Theatre Award for the best performance by an actress in a musical!)fronts the set with "millisecond-perfect comic timing" (John Shand- SMH) delivering charming original material and unique takes on classic tunes.
The boybirds drive a punchy backup led by...
Jeremy Brennan on keys (King Casual, Altarboyz, Cabaret) Stefano Caroleo on drums Christian Young on bass (James Morrison Band, Jade MacRae) And stars of Guys & Dolls Andrew Conaghan and Luke Joslin bringing dapper style to backing vocals.
Boasting airplay on FBI, Eastside radio & Australian Internet Radio and fresh from appearances at the Sydney Food and Wine Fair, FBI radio plays at the Sydney Opera House & four sellout seasons at El Rocco Jazz cellar and Slide Lounge.
This is sophisticated pop for a sophisticated generation.
Join in Sydney's crush on all things cabaret and indulge with AVA TORCH AND THE BOYBIRDS.
