Blue Trip are one of Sydney’s most entertaining jazz, soul, blues, funk and motown bands. The group’s core members are Anthea White (vocals) and Mark Palmer (keys/vocals). The duo are joined by Sydney’s best musicians to deliver a polished, energetic and unforgettable performance with tight arrangements, beautiful vocal harmonies and an eclectic repertoire.

The group spent six months performing at the Tokyo Hilton Dec 2003-June 2004 (as the Giddy Martini’s) and two months at the Kumamoto Carnival Aug 2004-Sept 2004 in Japan. Since their return Blue Trip have been performing at a range of Sydney’s best entertainment venues, such as, The wine banq, The Opera Bar, Bar Me, Astral Bar and The Basement (with Jubilation). They are also completing a contract at the Sydney Harbour Marriott’s Mac lounge, performing and booking live music (duo to quartet) 5 nights a week.

Blue Trip made their International Jazz Festival debut in March 2005, at the 2005 Montana Jazz Festival in Tauranga New Zealand. The longest running Jazz Festival in the world. Blue Trip’s four piece band had the Tauranga audiences going wild.

“The calibre of the band with its consistently inspiring performance helped make the festival the most successful ever for the café, drawing many customers back the next day. I would recommend Blue Trip whole-heartedly both to music lovers and venue operators”
