Live traditional, danceable Jazz in Sydney....!! Club Ashfield is the venue and with its long residency, The Bridge City Jazz Band is the band....a nominal 4 piece we have three special guests each Friday taking the band up to a 7 piece swinging trad.jazz band...this coming Friday 5th April sees us back in action after the earlier Good Friday Club closure....Mike Hallam leads the band with Kym Till on piano, Paul Furniss on reeds and Craig Lee on drums as the special guests for the night....

Last Friday saw Club Ashfield closed as it was Good Friday on the Easter weekend and so no jazz...but this coming Friday 5th April has Mike Hallam leading the Bridge City Jazz Band on trumpet with Kym Till on piano, Paul Furniss replacing Colin Beal on reeds due to Colin's recent hip operation from which he is still recovering and Craig Lee takes the drum stool complimenting the three regulars...John Bates on trombone/vocals, Colin Davies on double bass and myself, Dennis Quinlan on banjo.....
A great night shaping up.....
Get your "glad rags on" and come up to the Club...5 Charlotte Street, Ashfield, beside the Ashfield railway station on the northern side and up in the bistro/function area on the first floor ...7.30pm to 10.30pm...admission FREE...
