@OliviaChaney Thanks, Olivia! I hope I’ll run into you in London Town. Your gig 13 (!) years ago in the Purcell Room… still one of the most memorable of my life. And I still have your physical EP with the hand-made cover!!!!
We’re pleased to announce @jolawry as Head of Jazz, starting in February 2024.
Dr Lawry is a vocalist, composer & educator at the University of Sydney, where she is Equity in Jazz Team Leader.

@nickyschrire@OliviaChaney Julie Andrews = co-GOAT of diction along with Carmen McRae. Loved your thread on the subject. Such a fan of Olivia and some of your lightly soaring phrases with the delicately huge interval jumps gave me those same delicious vibes.
Love this song from @nickyschrire with its unashamed grafting to McCartney, and do I hear influence from another of my faves @OliviaChaney in here too? Such a beautiful melody and so glad I can hear and understand every artful lyric 😜 https://t.co/CBJeR7YyVB
Oedipus Schmoedipus this morning I rolled up my jeans so I could play with my toddler son in a paddle pool and he said “you have blootiful legs Mummy” and I dined out on that AAALLL day.
Thanks @gb_watchman for making “Acrobats” the @WRTImusic album of the week. Obviously I’m biased because it’s somewhat glowing 🥰 BUT the attached review is also so beautifully written. In light of what’s happening to jazz journalists of late, we need to treasure these writers.
