remarkable list of outstanding musicians from Australia and around the world
and has performed at many of Australia's best venues including The Opera House
Concert Hall, The State Theatre and the Sydney Town Hall. A finalist at The
National Jazz Awards she is also an experienced radio personality and
three-time host of The Freedman Fellowship Jazz Awards held yearly at The
Studio, Sydney Opera House.
The
daughter of professional musicians who met and married in London, Lily spent
her first five years touring the world with her parents who later settled in
Australia. Returning to her roots Lily has very quickly established herself as

guest at The Hideaway, having recently performed an Aretha Franklin show for
three nights with Janette Mason and Mary Pearce, and was invited to perform at
The Budapest Jazz Club last year.
