The media refer to #1 selling artist, Aubrey Logan as “The Queen of Sass.”  And it’s easy to see why. Her concerts are a mix of excellent musicality, jaw-dropping vocals, expert trombone-playing, a breathtaking array of originals and original takes on cover songs and, well…fun! Her heart wrenching musical stories has audiences in tears just before her comedic relief has them in stiches.

Aubrey Logan loves music, loves performing and loves her fans. And it shows.  “My relationship with the audience is the most fun I can legally have!” she says.  Very few artists can concentrate so fully on the music and yet be so connected to the people who have come to hear her.  And that connection is magic.

Aubrey has seen a lot of recent success.  Her debut album, Impossible, immediately shot to the top 10 on the iTunes, Billboard and Amazon charts.  And her next appearance on Summer Horns II, from A to Z (as a special guest of Dave Koz on Concord Records) became the #1 selling Contemporary Jazz Album.  Aubrey has spent more time at the top of the charts lately than she has in an airport, and travel has been a permanent fixture for her in the last couple of years.

Aubrey Logan has performed more than 250 shows since 2016.  Besides countless dates touring as a guest star with Postmodern Jukebox and another nationwide tour with Dave Koz and his all-star lineup, Aubrey has been selling out her own shows in venues all over the US and Europe.

First coming to international attention after winning BOTH the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival Jury and Audience-Choice awards, Aubrey has gone on to perform with Pharrell Williams, Seth McFarlane, Meghan Trainor, Josh Groban, Gerald Albright, Haley Reinhart, and countless other legends. Her appearances on Jimmy Kimmel and The Grammy Awards and a PBS special and London Live have kept her in the public eye and millions of fans have watched her head-spinning videos on YouTube and Facebook.  It seems like everywhere you turn, you’re bumping into Aubrey Logan.

She’s now preparing for a US Tour, a European Tour, an Australian Jazz Cruise and the recording of her next album.  So no need to worry….there’s no shortage of “sass” in our immediate future.

Callum Gentleman plays blues/folk noir with the odd dash of country. It’s Nick Cave meets The Smiths in a dark alley where they conspire to kidnap Bob Dylan and move to New Zealand. It’s Tom Waits sharing a bottle of moonshine with Leonard Cohen at 4am while binge watching Twin Peaks (original season).
He's a raconteur, trouper, chancer, and murder ballad lover. But above all, Callum Gentleman is a storyteller. These stories come out as songs, poems, campfire yarns, whiskey-soaked bar banter. Stories about good people doing bad things, and bad people who try hard to be good...but often fail. Stories of fallen angels staring to heaven, contrite demons yearning for redemption, down-and-out junkies scrounging for a dollar, the devil gets it on with the wrong hooker. Stories told in a child's whisper, a father's tears, and a drunk man's roar. 
Callum started playing in Paris and London before returning home to New Zealand, where he’s done many national tours. In 2017 he played two Australian tours. 2018 sees him adding American to the list (currently Denver, CO).
He often performs with allies Joel Vinsen (guitar) and Sam Loveridge (violin) beside him, but is just as happy flying solo. He’s played gigs with artists such as Tami Neilson, Marlon Williams, Tiny Ruins, Nadia Reid, Reb Fountain, RL Cole, Delaney Davidson, Will Wood, Hopetoun Brown, Bond Street Bridge, Great North and The Eastern. 
Callum is also one half of poetry/experimental guitar duo Panhandlers.

My stuff.  Things I do with keyboards for fun.  Programming, playing and experimenting.
