From rising star vocalist Alex Siegers, an album of truly Australian jazz standards, featuring classic tracks from across six decades, several recorded here for the first time.

Introduced to Australian and New Zealand jazz by her teacher, the late Kerrie Biddell, Siegers was excited when Tim Nikolsky released the first iteration of the Australian Jazz Real Book – but also frustrated that so many of the classic tunes in it were so difficult to access in recorded form. This album, says Siegers, is a first step towards remedying that lack, and building the core of the Australian jazz canon.
