John Montesante Quintet with FEM BELLING + ANTON DELECCA

JAZZ: On Thursday, JUNE 25,2026 JMQ Jazz Ensemble is delighted to welcome back fabulous jazz singer-violinist, FEM BELLING with outstanding saxophonist, ANTON DELECCA. Not to mention the all-star line up... Darrin Archer, Nick Haywood, tbc, and John Montesante

FEM's early years were in South Africa, with a highly esteemed jazz-pianist father, Howard, a leader in overcoming apartheid rules, to allow black and white musicians to perform together. Her teenage years were in Australia, before a long sojourn performing abroad, and lately as a favourite soloist on international cruise lines. With her captivating voice, remarkable stage presence, Fem infuses jazz standards with her own creative flair. Her performances pay homage to jazz legends while adding a touch of modern sophistication - making her one of the most versatile performers on the circuit today.

ANTON is a saxophonist and composer who leads his own bands and has released several albums. Music is a passion that has driven his life direction! In late 2019 he returned from New York after two years completing a Masters in Music in Jazz Studies, where he's played with American greats including Arthur Blythe, Odean Pope, Wycliffe Gordon and Maceo Parker. He performed for 13 years with The Bamboos, recording nine albums and many spin-off projects. He studied saxophone with 'Names' in the US Jazz scene. Anton has performed in all John Montesante's bands over more than thirty years and he is a sought-after musician across multiple prestigious ensembles.
