Jazz in Sydney..Live Traditional Jazz- Paul Furniss returns to lead the Bridge Ciy Jazz Band this coming Friday 8th March at Club Ashfield....with him as special guests are Monique Lysiak on piano and Viv Carter on drums.....

Paul Furniss is a favourite musician for me....in fact I start my almost monthly radio program on a Friday 11am to 1pm for the Sydney Jazz Club on Radio 2RDJ FM88.1 with "South Rampart Street Parade" featured by his San Francisco Jazz Band....
Good one DQ...why not come along and hear this great number played by the master in person....
Monique Lysiak on the Club's grand piano and Viv Carter , featured on that track I mentioned, is on drums....
