About the event
The Corner House Jazz Band plays traditional jazz with a hard-driving style, and is one of Australia’s most accomplished jazz bands. The band was formed in 1980, playing at the Railway Hotel, North Fremantle, and still plays at the Swan Hotel nearby every Saturday afternoon. They have had a 20 year Friday-night residency at the famous Jazz Cellar in Mount Hawthorn. The Cellar jumps with the band's pumping and nostalgic repertoire, including New Orleans Jazz, Chicago styles, roaring 20s, Swing, Duke Ellington’s Cotton Club jungle, Louis Armstrong’s Hot Fives and Sevens, J.P. Sousa Marches, and… much, much more. The Cornerhouse Jazz Band has toured overseas, twice to the USA, to Malaysia, Japan, New Zealand and Borneo, and have played in all the Australian states.
