Legendary percussionist Greg Sheehan joins electro-acoustic jazz duo Avant Raag for a night of musical bliss!
Avant Raag is a duo exploring the intersection of acoustic tradition and electronic innovation. Blending rich jazz sensibilities with textures of electronica and world music, they create a sound that is both contemporary and timeless.
It is the musical partnership of Casey Greene (saxophones, flute, clarinet, keyboards) and Jeremy Sawkins (electric guitar, electric sitar and bass).
Drawing on decades of performance, composition, and international touring, they weave acoustic instruments with synthesisers, effects and live improvisation—producing immersive soundscapes and original compositions that blur genre boundaries.
This event brings them together with prominent Australian percussionist, Greg Sheehan. Greg is an active performer, teacher and recording artist who has been significantly represented in Australian music over the last 55 years. He has been a major influence on generations of musicians and has literally reshaped the map of rhythm.
A passionate visionary, Greg created a unique system known as ‘Rhythm Diamonds’ , which is now a successful book. His original body percussion style and reinvention of tambourine technique have become legendary!
Currently touring with Bobby Singh and as a Soloist.
‘Astounding Musicianship!’—John Shand. SMH.
