Jazz in Sydney....Friday 1st April-Bridge City Jazz Band combines with Black Mountain JB to play at Club Ashfield...The Black Mountain, Bridge City Connection.....

 We had a great night with Bill Dudley, Gary Walford and Joel Davis last Friday...look out for them in future gigs with us.......
This coming Friday 1st April features two bands combining to form the Black Mountain, Bridge City connection....
We've played together over several years now and the group come together like a well oiled machine...
Traditional Jazz at its best with a tendency to the New Orleans tradition...well we feature jazz standards from the earlier New Orleans repetoire....
Band leader is of course Tony Thomas on trumpet and vocals, Ron Cook on piano, both come up from Canberra for the night and on the drums is Ian Hill from way down the coast at Mossy Point.
The Bridge City side of things are the usual Colin Beal on clarinet and alto, John Bates on vocals and trombone, Colin Davies on double bass and band organiser Dennis Quinlan on banjo....
Left click on the images to enlarge...
The band will play together in numerous other out of Sydney gigs throughout the year....read the chart further down this blog...
