About the Bridge City Jazz Band

Bridge City Jazz Band
The Bridge City Jazz Band formed in July 2003, initially to continue a residency at Club Ashfield, Charlotte Street, Ashfield a suburb of Sydney, playing Friday evenings 7.30pm to 10.30pm. Since then it plays across Australia. Initially starting as a 5 piece group due to efforts by drummer, Jim Morrell, who on his retirement kindly donated his drum kit to the band... on ya Jim! Double bass player Colin Davies ; banjo player Dennis Quinlan; following the retirement of Jim Morrell then the death of its trombonist, John Bates, it is currently run by Colin Davies and Dennis Quinlan with Jack Wiard as its reed player and Mike Hallam its trombone player and vocalist. So the group is currently a quartet, playing as such in outside jobs and hiring when required and each Friday night for the Club Ashfield gig, a trumpet lead, pianist and drummer from a select group of top traditional jazz players from as far north as Newcastle and south as Canberra, making a 7 piece traditional jazz band. In fact the only 7 piece JB playing on a regular basis in the Sydney area.
