Saturday April 19th, 7.30pm, Arts House, North Melbourne Town Hall

“The New Standards”
Gian Slater - Voice, Effects, Guitar
Christopher Hale - Bass Guitar, Bajo Sexto, Baritone Guitar, Lap Steel

Two of our most searching and original instrumental voices re-interpret, re-imagine get re-inspired by works from Doug de Vries, Ben Winkelman, Tim Rogers, Allan Browne and more in a tribute to Melbourne’s composers. With their unique individual voices and an almost telepathic rapport, Slater and Hale have performed together in different settings since 2004, including a duo performance alongside jazz guitar legend Wayne Krantz at New York’s legendary 55 bar.
