Elixir is a trio of friends and musicians – multi-platinum\nselling songstress Katie Noonan, outstanding saxophonist Zac Hurren\nand the highly-regarded jazz guitarist Stephen Magnusson. Each\nartist brings to the project an individual style and potency. The\nresult is an improvised folk and jazz-inspired blend of music.\nDrawing inspiration from the likes of Nick Drake and Joni Mitchell,\nElixir has always been about poetry, set to music. And on this\nalbum, the works of celebrated poet Thomas Shapcott are Elixir’s\nkey ingredient.The new album will also feature a string quartet\nfrom the Australian Chamber Orchestra and string charts written and\narranged by Katie’s long-time collaborator and fellow\nConservatorium graduate Stephen Newcomb, who is currently\ncompleting his PhD at Manhattan School of Music.“Our aim,” explains\nKatie, “is to make gentle, intimate music.”Elixir will cast a spell\non you. Katie Noonan: vocalsStephen Magnusson: electric, steel and\nnylon string guitars Zac Hurren: soprano and tenor saxophones
