“They Called Him Lee”

Lee Morgan was the most melodic and inventive trumpet player of the hard bop and post-bop era of jazz!

This was a golden age for jazz!

The music swung hard; the melodies were infectious and catchy; the musicians played with an intensity and fire hitherto unheard.

Lee Morgan left an indelible mark on the world of jazz that is still being felt today.

The Daimon Brunton Quintet (DBQ) is one of the most exciting live band experiences happening now and after having released six full-length albums (with their most recent being an incredible live recording of the quintet with the Victorian Youth Symphony Orchestra) the band is now taking a deep dive into the music of Lee Morgan.

From Lee’s work with Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers; to his solo albums like ‘Sidewinder’ and ‘Rumproller’ The Daimon Brunton Quintet are going to cover it all!

The Daimon Brunton Quintet is always a visceral, engaging, intoxicating and exciting experience and to see this incredible band take on the melodic genius of Lee Morgan will make for a night you won’t forget.

This show will feature:

Daimon Brunton – trumpet
Rob Mercer – drums
Zac White – guitar
Dominic Carpenter – piano
Sebastian Barahona – bass
