Steve & Stu Jazz Duo

Having known each other for around 20 years, we’ve worked together in a variety of musical settings over that time. More recently, we reunited through a band project & discovered a natural chemistry as a duo. What started as a side collaboration quickly became something special – and we’re excited to share it with you.

Between us, we bring extensive local & international experience, having performed with the Melbourne & Tasmanian Symphony Orchestras, Orchestra Victoria, and John Foreman’s Australian Pops Orchestra; in numerous musical theatre productions; and on live TV shows such as Dancing With The Stars, It Takes Two, The Footy Show & The Logies. We’ve also performed live with or recorded for artists including Tina Arena, John Farnham, David Campbell, Xavier Rudd, Nardia, Ray Charles, Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons, and The Temptations.

As a duo, we’ve performed for countless restaurants, corporate functions & private events, bringing a relaxed yet sophisticated sound that blends classic jazz with timeless popular tunes. We also offer flexible lineup options, adding singers, keys, bass, drums or even cello – transforming our act from an intimate 2-piece to a full 7- or 8-piece ensemble to suit any event or atmosphere.

We love what we do together – and we hope you do too.
