Louisa Williamson seems to be just about everywhere in the capital city's jazz scene.

She's a saxophonist and a very talented composer.

She's played live and recorded for some of New Zealand's biggest names from L.A.B. to Trinity Roots, and more traditional jazz ensembles like the Rodger Fox Big Band.

Her debut album What Dreams May Come won the APRA best jazz composition award in 2023, and last year, she was commissioned to write a work for the Wellington Jazz Festival.
