Kenny's Lab Band

Brendan Clarke: Double Bass

Mike Kenny, Richard Maegraith, Jason Morphett and Jamie Castrisos were all in the RAAF Air Command Band together. During their time in the RAAF they formed 'The Lab Band' as a place to workshop ideas and improvise. The Lab Band played at Jazz festivals and gigs in this capacity for numerous years. In 2008 the RAAF combined Melbourne and Sydney bands to form one band based at Point Cook VIC and the above mentioned went back to being freelance musicians. Now with the help of Pianist John Harkins and bassist Brendan Clarke the Lab Band has re-formed to revisit some of the old music from the RAAF days and to explore some fresh tunes and arrangements as well.
The two nights at Colboune Ave promise to be exciting mix of old and new, tradition and innovation. Harking back to old masters while perusing new inovations.
