𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐚 𝐉𝐚𝐳𝐳 𝐎𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚 - Dynamic youth ensemble Spectra Jazz Orchestra are back at the Inner West’s favourite music venue, Lazybones!
𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐚 𝐉𝐚𝐳𝐳 𝐎𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚 is an initiative for young women and gender diverse musicians which builds a bridge between music education on the secondary and tertiary levels, into the professional music world. As the wider jazz community consists predominantly of male musicians, Spectra also empowers and creates a supportive space for its members to grow as musicians.

𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 is a 𝙁𝙪𝙣𝙠/𝙋𝙤𝙥 group made up of friends who met each other while studying Jazz at the Conservatorium of Music. Their shared love of funk brought them together while still retaining their Jazz influences. The band seamlessly blends old and new favourites and turns them into a night of high energy fun that gets everyone on their feet! This hot new band is excitingly moving funk forward with original tunes written by bandleader Hazel Alexander, as well as covers from The Carpenters to Katy Perry.
