Event information

UK-based Naarm/Melbourne artist, producer and multi-instrumentalist Audrey Powne is a creative force carving out a distinctive path in the future jazz and soul world. Having honed her craft in the vibrant Melbourne music scene, Powne can now be found performing in some of the most visionary musical circles globally.

Powne is known equally for her extraordinary technical skills and creative inventiveness, and for being unafraid of pushing the boundaries while simultaneously keeping musical traditions alive. Drawn to jazz from a young age, particularly to those artists best known for their masterful reinvention, Powne is inspired by legends Herbie Hancock, Miles Davis, Wayne Shorter and Betty Carter and 1990s/2000s crossover artists Roy Hargrove, Meshell N’Degeocello, D’angelo and Bilal. Powne’s style is hard to pin down, from hook-laden synth pop songs to long form cinematic soundscapes, RnB ballads and free jazz improvisations, there are few genres Powne has not touched.
