Nama Rangachari – Standards 5tet
The Brunswick Green
Sunday 8 March 2026
8:00pm
$15 / $10 concession
2026 is already shaping up to be a big one! Recording, releasing, performing, and generally biting off more than is sensible.
But one thing stays sacred: the yearly standards gig at the Brunny Green.
Deep cuts only. Tunes that live a little further down the page, pulled out and treated with care, curiosity, and just enough recklessness. Expect a couple of cheeky originals woven into the set too!
I’m joined by some of Naarm’s most exciting young improvisers, musicians deeply grounded in the tradition while pushing right at the cutting edge of the music.
The band:
Tenor Sax: Jayden Blockley
Alto Sax: Imre Scicluna
Keys: Abi Lee
Drums: Quinn Knight
Bass: Nama Rangachari
If you like your standards obscure, swinging, and played by people whose style will launch you to astral plains of aural Elysium... this may be for you
