The Scornful Four- A Hotpot Mix of Original Jazz Creations

Step into the world of The Scornful Four, a dynamic jazz quartet from Meanjin, known for their unique blend of traditional jazz and distinctly Australian influences. 🌏 This ensemble draws inspiration from the iconic Mulligan-Baker Quartet while also paying homage to the legendary pianoless groups of Sonny Rollins and John Coltrane during the fiery 1960s.

Experience the haunting beauty and the unmistakably Australian soundscape shaped by Bernie McGann, the intense performances of Mark Simmonds and Scott Tinkler, alongside the genre-defying artistry of Sandy Evans. ✨
