SHOWS
All the places you can catch Liz playing live.
Liz Frencham Trio @ Johnston Street Jazz
Liz has the rare talent of being able to play the double bass and sing, both incredibly well. And at the same time. With groove. And emotion. She possesses a deep understanding of the song form and the horizons of jazz. Back when she lived in Sydney she was 1/3 of the band Jigzag, and she has been sought after ever since for her unique, deeply song-aware sensitivity.
She is here at Johnston Street Jazz to play a set of original songs both old and new and will be accompanied by Brisbane's very own Marcus Church on acoustic guitar and Paul Henderson on 5-string banjo. Together they will bridge jazz, Americana and folk in a tender bear hug of sound. Lose yourself in songs and stories of neurodivergence, resilience and self-acceptance all carried by the warmth of her double bass and a voice that both aches and hopes.
Truthful, intimate and authentic.
Scott Cook (Canada) & Liz Frencham @ the Gaelic Club
Prairie balladeer with a social conscience and a sense of humour, Scott Cook sings sturdy, straight-talking songs that see the good in you!
For this, his only Sydney show, he'll be joined by acclaimed Australian double-bassist, singer and songwriter Liz Frencham, and brilliant Oz mandolinist and songwriter, Justin Vilchez, as The Little Rippers. Liz will also open the night with her own set (7.00 - 7.20pm}.
Born in West Virginia and raised on the Canadian prairies, in 2007 Scott quit his job teaching kindergarten in Taiwan, to move into a minivan and embark on the life of a full-time troubadour.
Since then he's toured almost incessantly across Canada, the US, Europe, Asia, Australia, & NZ, playing numerous shows and festivals, all the while distilling his experiences into empathetic, keenly observant verse.
"He has a gentle human touch, a wry sense of humour, a whole lot of integrity, a warm, rugged voice and a bunch of memorable lines. Truly one of Woody Guthrie's children."
Dorrigo Folk & Bluegrass Festival
Liz will be featuring a great new trio including Jacob McGuffie on guitar and Tanya Bradley on violin.
She’ll also be spotted playing with Scott Cook and Fred Smith.
