The Return of Carl Orr

Now living back in Australia after 28 eventful and magical years in London, Berklee-educated Carl Orr returns to the 606 for his first London show since his August 2023 606 farewell performance, which has been immortalised on his new Carl Orr "Live in London" album, his 11th to date.

Carl made quite a name for himself working with jazz and fusion royalty including Billy Cobham, George Duke, Randy Brecker, Ernie Watts and Don Grusin, while demonstrating his versatility performing with the likes of rock star Sting and blues master Eric Bibb.Carl is bringing an All-Star band to the club for this special performance! With Ross Stanley-keyboards, Laurence Cottle-bass and Francesco Mendolia-drums the night promises plenty of groove and virtuosity along with Carl’s trademark intimate, whisper-quiet passages.

While jazz-based, Carl’s own melodic and groove-based compositions are also influenced by funk, rock, blues, gospel, world music and bossa nova, resulting in a fascinating panorama of shifting musical landscapes.

We are absolutely delighted to welcome Carl back to the 606.“Orr has a penchant for a good melody…superbly and sensitively played” Jazz Views
