The Wanganui Jazz Club welcomes pianist and composer Mark Donlon to its October meeting at the St Johns Club.
"He brings his latest project, a quintet with three of New Zealand's brightest young star performers," president Ken Chernoff said.
"Saxophonist Louisa Williamson, guitarist Luca Sturny and bassist Seth Boy.
"The band fits together around the drums of Lance Philip who is no stranger to Whanganui, having performed here with Rodger Fox on several occasions."
Chernoff says British-born Donlon found a home in Wellington in 2013 and is a New Zealand School of Music (NZSM) senior lecturer.
