Saxophonist Eilish Wilson is excited to present a few original songs as well as a few borrowed tunes together with long time friends Callum Allardice (guitar), Scott Maynard (double bass), and Olivia Campion (drums).

First debuted in the Wellington Jazz Festival 2020, these compositions and tunes express ideas of community and connection.

Eilish performs in a variety of bands and collectives, including the Rodger Fox Big Band, Newtown Rocksteady, The Wellington Mingus Ensemble, Raw Collective, Dr. Reknaw, and Fun ⅋ Funner.
