Dubbed as the future of Australian Jazz, bassist and producer Ross McHenry is reluctant to be labeled with the "J" word. Despite this, he is in the country with his Future Ensemble (a group that features well known Wellingtonians Myele Manzanza and ex-Adelaidian Adam Page)  to play the 2015 Wellington Jazz Festival. Ross talks to Zac Arnold about the formative influence of WOMADelaide and his insatiable thirst to keep making music.
