If you love the piano, you’ll love hearing one of Australia's most highly respected jazz pianists and musical directors, Peter Locke. Renowned for his deft touch and lyrical style on the keys, expect Locke’s cool, elegant arrangements of classics by Cole Porter, Gershwin, Duke Ellington, and more - delivered with intimacy, spontaneity, and refined musicianship for a truly memorable evening. With the brilliant Phil Stack on bass and Andrew Dickeson on drums, the Peter Locke Trio is joined by Sydney jazz vocalist Kate Wadey, whose warm, expressive voice adds a fresh dimension, moving effortlessly between originals and reimagined jazz favourites.  

“Locke especially had a facility, lightness of touch, joi de vivre and musical artistry, which brought the overall music to another level.” Loudmouth, The Music Trust, 2024 

“One of the great piano trios in Australian jazz” Sydney Arts Guide  

“Kate Wadey highlights two essential pillars of the jazz tradition: the immortal swing feel; and the slow ballad exploring life and love.” The Weekend Australian
