'Today Will be Another Day' is the second album from Melbourne based trombonist-composer James Macaulay, winner of the National Jazz Awards for brass, and his Happy Hoppy Orchestra.

With a collection of Macaulay originals that draw from his experiences touring Japan with pianist Aaron Choulai and performing with his trad-jazz group the Lagerphones, the Tokyo recorded album with his "dream project" is a whimsical exploration of diverse jazz styles and moods. Performed by a stellar band of some of his generations' most creative talents pooled from both Melbourne and Tokyo, the album showcases James in a new light both as performer and composer.

The compositions draw from iconic Melbourne influences, the sounds and music of Japan, and the relationships Macaulay has developed there. Inspired by the work of the Allan Browne Quintet, James' compositions combine lyricism and abstraction in order to produce new ways to organise improvisation within the standard instrumentation of a jazz septet. Whilst this album celebrates the musical relationships and friendships which fortuitously converged in Tokyo, it is also a homage to Macaulay's mentors in Melbourne, including Eugene Ball, Andrea Keller, Tamara Murphy, Scott Tinkler, and the great Allan Browne.
