The trio of Kristian Borring (guitar), Zac Grafton (double bass) and Peter Evans (drums) have toured extensively across Australia in recent years, including a featured performance at the Perth International Jazz Festival in 2024.

Number Junky have become known for combining exciting rhythms and unusual time signatures with lyrical melodies, rich harmony and a strong sense of interplay. Led by internationally acclaimed guitarist Kristian Borring, the trio brings together three distinctive musicians whose performances balance intricate compositions with spontaneity and improvisation.

Following the critical success of their second album Birak, Composure presents a new collection of original music and modern arrangements of standards and classical hymns, continuing to develop the trio’s distinctive sound. The album launch marks the beginning of another national tour, bringing Number Junky’s dynamic live performances to audiences around Australia.
