Keijzer McGuiness Quintet (SYD/Amsterdam)
"Antipodean-euro jazz with grunt"
Dutchman Remco Keijzer and Australian Lucian McGuiness normally reside hemispheres apart, but brave long haul flights and carry-on restrictions to join musical forces whenever possible. The challenge has been to develop material for the band during these brief assemblies. The result is exuberant, sometimes brazen music that blends the jazz flavours of Sydney, Amsterdam and New York. The Keijzer McGuiness Quintet reunites in March 2009 for a national tour to launch their first album, The Seed Habit.
