Paige Duggan's new jazz release Cosmos Made Conscious sees her joined by a stellar band of some of Australia's finest jazz-genre bending musicians.
Robbie Melville (guitar and effects), Zoe Frater (electric bass), Gideon Brazil (saxophones, flutes and piano), Maddison Carter (drums and percussion) with Paige on vocals, trumpet and guitar.
This new album explores the connections between the universe and us. It includes some particularly reflective pieces allowing a meditative, contemplative space. Others are more lyrical and textural. Thoughtfulness, yet feeling is gathered in the moment, utilising the full diversity of sound only possible by musicians of this calibre and experience. A musical journey through the cosmos and our minds, life and human parallels to what we discover in the universe.
Alongside the music performance, Paige has also developed art-animation-film to be presented at live performances. Paired with the enveloping music, the visuals aim to engage and support an inclusive performance for people of all abilities.
Cosmos Made Conscious is new body of Australian jazz music composed by Paige Duggan. It has been made possible with support from Creative Victoria's New Music Works Grant and the Sustaining Creativity Initiative from Regional Arts Victoria.
