"The A-Z of Jazz" - Renae Suttie and the Jazzamatazz Quartet
Advertisement
Get ready for a night of interactive musical fun as the band takes you on a jazz journey through the alphabet! Simply draw a letter from the basket, then the band plays a song that begins with that letter. I wonder what happens if you pick "Z"?
The audience is in the driver's seat, helping shape the night's playlist with a huge selection of songs. Whether it's a timeless swinging standard, a bebop tune, a jazz ballad or an unexpected gem, every choice promises a fresh musical adventure.
Come armed with your sense of humour for an evening filled with laughter, audience participation and outstanding musicianship.

General Info:
Step inside from 6:30 pm. The music begins at 7:30 pm. Venue closes at 11.30pm.
Seating is unreserved and claimed by those who arrive first. The early ones always find the best vantage point.
Food and small plates will be available throughout the evening, and the bar will be flowing with local and international wines, classic cocktails, fine spirits, and a deep collection of bourbons worthy of New Orleans itself.
