From the Australian Embassy:

Elixir is a trio of friends and musicians — multi-platinum selling songstress Katie Noonan, outstanding saxophonist Zac Hurren and the highly-regarded jazz guitarist Stephen Magnusson, who joined the group in 2005. Each artist brings to the project an individual style and potency. The result is a sublime blend of lyrical, improvised folk and jazz-inspired music.

Elixir’s self-titled first album became a top 20 bestseller upon its release in 2003, and their long-awaited second album “First Seed Ripening” debuted at #1 on the ARIA Jazz charts, then went on to take out the 2011 ARIA Award (Jazz category).

Katie Noonan

Katie Noonan’s technical mastery and pure voice makes her one of Australia’s most versatile and beloved vocalists. A mother, singer, producer, songwriter, pianist and business woman, this 4 x ARIA Award winning and 6 x platinum selling songstress first received widespread praise as the angel-voiced songstress of indiepop band George and has since taken audiences on sublime excursions through Jazz, Pop and Classical music.
