Duke of George presents

The Heritage Reunion Jazzband 

Due to popular demand, The Heritage Reunion Jazzband will be back playing at the Duke on Sunday 1st June. 

“We’ve had so many people asking if we could keep going, we just had to get together again,” explains band organiser, Nigel Ridgway.

The band was the Jazz Club of WA's house band back in the 80s and 90s and has always been an attraction as its music is mainly New Orleans traditional jazz, played with fun and enthusiasm. The music is free flowing, pulsating, revivalist style and is always swinging, fresh and joyous. This time, the band is introducing its new trumpet player, Adrian Hicks, a fine younger musician and WAAPA graduate. Not to be missed! 

The other members of the band have been an integral part of the jazz scene in Perth over many decades. Bob Benton is on trombone, Murray Kent on reeds, Dave Cowie on piano, Rod Evans on banjo, John Healy on double bass and vocals and Nige on drums and vocals.
