Live Jazz by the Sea at Lamrock Cafe with Novella and Lionel

An afternoon of smoky sexy Jazz! This Sunday afternoon, Lamrock Cafe invites you to step back into a golden era of music with the sophisticated sounds of Jazz for Joy. A duo with a remarkable story, Novello's and her longtime collaborator first met over 40 years ago while playing together in Elton John’s in-house jazz band — and the magic has never left them. With Novello's unmistakable husky vocals and elegant piano accompaniment, they bring standard jazz classics to life in a way that feels both timeless and intimate. Think smoky bars, swinging rhythms, and soulful ballads, all against the backdrop of Bondi’s sparkling coastline. Sip a glass of wine, enjoy a long lunch, and let the smooth sounds of Ella, Billie, and the jazz greats wash over you. An afternoon with Jazz for Joy is more than music — it’s an atmosphere, a memory, and a celebration of true artistry.

We aim to schedule live music at 3:30pm, though times may vary on the day. Please note, performing artists are also subject to change. Please TEXT 0431044450 for updates.
