LUME is a monthly residency at Bar 303 that features some of the most exciting emerging female and gender diverse musicians in the Australian music scene.

8pm - Natasha Lowe - Natasha’s compositions thrive around storytelling, primarily written initially vocally to then be transferred to saxophone. Taking inspiration from Audrey Powne, Ckallebe Mendes, and Joe Tatton, she uses traditional jazz instrumentation to bring a modern and unique sound to her playing. Working with her quintet comprised of piano, electric bass, drums, trombone, and tenor sax, she puts an emphasis on performing interactively and with intent. Natasha Lowe aims to highlight both section playing through her melodies, and improvised and supportive rhythm section playing. After gaining experience in the industry over the last few years, she now works on recording and releasing her debut album.

9pm - Anja Duiker - emerging artist coming from the jazz and improvising world at VCA (Victorian College of the Arts), and has learnt under Gian Slater, Sunny Kim, Michelle Nicolle, some of Australia's great improvising vocalists. Although coming from a strong jazz background, Anja is taking her creativity to expand her musical horizons through her original compositions, being inspired from many genres, such as folk, soul and wider contemporary music.
