Anita Harris and Friends
Warm, vocal jazz; meandering through jazz standards (occasionally long, lost gems) predominantly from the 1930s and 1940s.
Once described by the English Jazz Journal as having a "fluid contralto which she employs to produce a delightfully creamy sound and she swings ably and effortlessly", Anita Harris has been on the Australian Jazz Scene for more than two decades. She has a large repertoire of jazz gems, four albums available on the Newmarket label and some of Melbourne's finest musicians on hand to work by her side. Listen to some swinging jazz from the golden era of Broadway and Hollywood (and the verses they rode in on.)
