Jack Pantazis is one of the most respected jazz guitarists on the Australian Jazz scene. Pantazis calls Melbourne his home and he has carved out a career as a performer, educator and composer crossing all styles of music.
Pantazis has a rich musical heritage that extends back to before he can remember. He has been a professional musician for over 35 years and as his website says, "Jack is fundamentally a jazz musician whose mastery skills and artistry also cross over into other styles such as…pop, rock, fusion, latin, classical…"
Pantazis has perfomed with ‘The Daryl McKenzie Jazz Orchestra’ (on going member for the past 17 years), ‘The Tim Davies Big Band’, 'The Toshi Clinch Big Band' as well as many other groups in Melbourne. He has also accompanied international artists like Mike Stern (ex-Miles Davis guitarist), American jazz great trombonist Bill Watrous, James Morrison and Marina Prior.
Pantazis has a strong connection to Greece both through family and music and as you will hear is hoping to travel to Greece very soon to perform.
Enjoy the interview folks.
