Arriving here fully formed, Tim’s unique vision shines through the eclectic program that displays a variety of grooves and stylistic influences, all with a strong through-line of jazz sensibility. Time Shift has received rave reviews from DownBeat, All About Jazz, Paris Move, Jazz Sensibilities, Jazz Life (Japan), and more. Don’t miss your chance to hear this music live, also featuring a band of Perth’s finest and long standing musical compatriots of Jago. A must-see live show!
