It’s a new dawn, it’s a new day, it’s a new life…You’ll be feeling good when you seize this historic opportunity to savour the songs of Nina Simone, channeled in the same rich, powerful tones through her talented daughter, Lisa Simone.

For the first time ever, this award winning actress and Grammy-nominated jazz vocalist will soon embark on a national Australian tour to honour her mother’s legacy.

Nina Simone stunned the world with her deep, velvet voice and soulful songs, earning her reputation as one of the greatest singers of our time. We are thrilled to welcome her daughter to Australia to enthral and enchant you with an intimate, heart-warming concert of her mother’s music.

Lisa will put a spell on you with feel-good Simone classics like: “My Baby Just Cares for Me,” “Feeling Good,” “Black Is the Colour,” “I’m Gonna Leave You,” “Love Me or Leave Me” and many more…

Lisa Simone’s lush voice will be accompanied by the soulful swing of an All-Star Big Band, featuring some of the best jazz musicians in the country.

Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to enjoy the classic repertoire of Nina Simone, performed by her very own daughter, with an all-star big band.


I made a pledge to my mother when she passed away to make sure she would be remembered in the way that she deserved.

A deep velvet voice, lush and powerful, just like her mother…
