"Jerome radiates both charisma and an organised chaos, creating a distinctive and refreshing perspective on neo-soul and jazz fusion" - The Line Of Best Fit
Foreign Brothers, Strawberry Fields & ASTRAL PEOPLE are excited to announce the debut Melbourne show of UK singer, producer and multi-instrumentalist Oscar Jerome, who today also announces his forthcoming album!
Fresh off the back of a run of UK dates supporting Kamasi Washington and an Annie Mac Presents show, as well as the release of his latest track 'Gravitate,' Jerome will gracing our shores with an exclusive show at The Night Cat, Melbourne (28 Nov) supported by Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange + Allysha Joy (solo) both back from a European summer tour. With Sophie McAlister on the decks all night!
Despite training first in classical guitar and then jazz at London’s Trinity Laban music school, Oscar Jerome’s music isn’t your typical conservatoire jazz fare. Anchored by his nonchalant baritone and soul-inflected grooves, and lifted by his rhythmically intricate guitar riffs, his music offers a glimpse into the intersections between introspective singer-songwriting and improvisatory jazz. Jerome said “My guitar playing and understanding of harmony – that’s come through my love of jazz music. But I think I gravitated to certain people who were also equally into other types of music like hip-hop or soul, reggae and dance music.”
Jerome is sure to put on an impressive showcase for his performances down under. Don't miss your chance to witness Oscar Jerome live for the very first time this November!
