The William Chiew Quintet
About
William Chiew is a drummer from Perth with a love for old fashioned swing, evocative movie themes and lyrical ballads. With a history of leading bands, including Rubaclava (which ranged from a 12-20 piece jazz orchestra), Theme Town (a 6-piece movie theme ensemble) and all-original jazz groups ranging from trios to sextets, The Will Chiew Combo is a synthesis of these passion projects with the goal of bringing an authentic and unique experience to every performance. The combo takes influence from the lyricism of Chet Baker, the pocket of Count Basie, and the dramaticism of great composers such as Ennio Morricone and Henry Mancini to create an organic and honest take on the swing tradition. Armed with a setlist full of unexpected earworms, the band features an array of accomplished individuals who bring their own signature flair, including Lachlan Glover sax, Josiah Padmanabham piano, Aaron Deacon guitar, Richard Timms bass.Date
