There will be heavenly harmony, heartwarming anecdotes and as always when these ladies come together, much hilarity! So raise your glasses high and let’s toast to The Ellington Jazz Club’s 17th birthday… and here’s to another seventeen years of jazz! 

Ali Bodycoat is Perth’s femme fatale. Winner of the Fringe World WA Cabaret Award 2017 for her original show Minor Major Marlene and owner of the long running 17 year jazz trio residency with Graham Wood and many other Perth-born jazz luminaries, performing with our very own WASO, for the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and throughout WA, Ali is one of Perth’s most respected artists. 

Libby Hammer is a performer whose talents know no bounds. She sings, composes, plays the ukulele, walks on stilts, sews glorious costumes and has a strong fan base among Perth’s 3 – 6 year olds. She is Perth’s own resident jazz diva, a multiple WAMI award winner and recipient of the WA Children’s Event Fringe World Award for her 2017 original music show Crazy Hat Day.

Jessie Gordon is a very sun-shy red-head who enjoys dirty jazz and even dirtier martinis. She has toured through Europe, South East Asia and Australia and is a ten time Fringe World Award winner. Jessie brings to the stage her passion for harmony singing, solo dancing and joyful performing. 

Simone Craddock is a West End leading lady turned multiple award-winning Jazz Songstress. Returning home from a dazzling career in London 6 years ago, Simone won the 2020 Fringe World Overall Music &amp; Musicals Award for Nina, Love Simone. She has performed at Ronnie Scotts, Houses of Parliament, sung with The Perth Symphony Orchestra, starred at His Majesty’s Theatre and has been commissioned to sing for two Governors of Western Australia.
