**Nana Koizumi（Trumpeter & Singer) from Japan**

  

Nana is a globe-trotting jazz artist based in Sydney, known for her rare style as a “singing trumpeter,” blending soulful vocals with skilled trumpet playing. She made her Australian debut on International Jazz Day 2023, performing to sold-out audiences at top venues across Sydney. Her growing profile led to a feature interview on SBS as part of its Japanese People Active in Australia series.

  

October 2024 marked her South Korean debut with a sold-out performance at the acclaimed jazz club Flat Nine. In November and December, she performed for the first time in China at Jazz at Lincoln Center Shanghai—one of the country’s most prestigious jazz venues—followed by a national tour across several cities.

  

In January 2025, she appeared at BLUE YARD, produced by Blue Note Japan, where she received high praise. She returned for a second performance in April due to popular demand.

  

Her first mini-album, By Your Side, was released in spring 2025 and has been met with strong support from fans and fellow musicians alike. A tour in support of the album is underway, with dates across Japan, Korea, and Australia.

  

In May 2025, Nana made her television debut on Nara TV’s Yu-Doki, which highlighted her accomplishments as an internationally active jazz musician.

  

In November 2025, she made her debut at the Wangaratta Festival of Jazz & Blues, one of Australian’s most prestigious jazz festivals. She is only the second Japanese artist in history to perform there and shared the stage with a group of outstanding up-and-coming Australian jazz musicians.
