The wait is over. NOIR is finally coming to WA 🖤

One of Australia’s most highly anticipated jazz collaborations arrives at The Ellington this August.

“Arguably the two finest exponents in Australian jazz of their respective artistries, pianism and vocalising, Noir is like a meeting at the summit. Think of the two masterly albums recorded by Bill Evans and Tony Bennett in the 1970s. Grabowsky and Nicolle are in that league. Noir is a statement for the ages. It’s that’s good.” ★★★★★ The Weekend Australian 2025

NOIR is a stunning collection of standards and originals exploring melancholy, heartbreak and love’s bitter ironies, revealing sentiment rather than sentimentality, beauty in deepest shadow, empathy and calm.
