VINCE JONES– Greatest Australian Jazz Singer/ Trumpet player, First Performance in Japan

7 December 2012 - 9 December 2012

Leading Australian trumpeter and jazz singer Vince Jones to visit Japan

Born in Glasgow, Scotland, in 1954, Jones migrated to Australia at the age of eleven. He started his professional career as a bebop trumpeter and, at the age of twenty, became captivated by R&B – admiring the technical brilliance, spontaneity and range of emotions expressed by R&B singers.  Jones then went on to become a leading jazz vocalist, incorporating both jazz and R&B influences. 

After his debut album Watch What Happens in 1981, Jones released a series of successful records. He is now a highly acclaimed songwriter, known for his stylish and unique compositions that transcend conventional music genres.  Despite being outside the mainstream, Jones has amassed a following of adoring fans all over the world.

This is a rare opportunity for music fans to listen to the cool depths of Jones’ unique voice and the rich sounds of his trumpet, live in Japan.
