Another New Venue

Yet Another New Venue For Us This Month
This Thursday night, the 5th of March, in Double Bay, I’ll be playing at another new venue for me along with 3 of the best blues men. Illya Szwec: guitar, Bruce Allen: sax and Rob Grosser drums. Great for anyone on the east side of Sydney. Golden Sheaf Hotel Good Rockin’ R&B from 9 to 11pm.

Kiama Jazz & Blues Festival
Dr Don’s Double Dose at the wonderful Kiama Jazz and Blues Festival this weekend with our usual 10 am Sat morning street side show next to Saltwater Cafe. That night we are at the classy but relaxed Mercure Gerringong playing their grand piano from 6 - 9. This resort style hotel is known for it’s excellent service and fine dining. See below for details.

Bill Dudley’s New Orleanians
This month I’ll be playing some wild New Olreans Jazz with Bill Dudley’s band on Wed at 12.30 at Sydney Flying Squadron Milsons Point. One of the rare chances to catch his show until Bill starts up another residency.

Isaiah B Brunt CD Launch
I’ll be playing keys with 4 piece band for Isaiah B Brunt to help launch his CD that was recorded in New Olreans. It’s at Spring Street Social, 110 Spring St Bondi Junction.
Great deal at $25 for dinner & show from 7pm at a great venue.

Last months
Angels Bayside Cafe gig was a hoot with the crowd of dedicated listeners and dancers at this beautiful Huskisson spot. Management asked us to play an extra hour. And we’ll be back again on Sudnay 22 March at 3.30pm.
Rob and I love singing and playing at these out door cafe spots and it’s worth a trip for south coast jivers. Plenty of time to get back home. And the night before our regular at Central Hotel ShellHarbour City on Saturday 21 March at the new earlier start time of 7pm which means our last set finishes at 10:30 so it’s not too late.
