Djawbreaker

Known for his unforgettable use of music and sound in film and television, David Lynch’s haunting, twisted worlds will come alive as Kaurna Yerta jazz-rock group Djawbreaker takes you on a sonic journey deep into the eerie and the sublime, paired with accompanying visuals by Ryan Sahb across The Lab’s 50sqm of LED screens. Djawbreaker made a strong debut on the Adelaide scene in 2021, quickly earning praise as an exciting new sonic force. What began as four jazz improvisers collaborating on lead vocalist Chelsea Lee’s 2019 jazz-rock album Fargo, gradually evolved into Djawbreaker—an ever-changing identity blending gritty, experimental jazz-rock. Djawbreaker will perform new and original music built from the world of the late artistic visionary, David Lynch. This dark, cinematic project leans towards the future of experimental jazz, by further stretching the boundaries that jazz plays in the creative field today.
