New Orleans Heritage Jazz Band

The New Orleans Heritage Jazz band is a creation of the mid-eighties when the early jazz music scene in Perth was buoyant.

The band was put together from musicians from various jazz bands at the time.

The concept was that the band would present and play mainly authentic material of the free flowing, pulsating, revivalist jazz style heard in numerous venues of that famous city, New Orleans. 

Heritage has had almost the same line-up since the start. It’s fun and the music is swinging, fresh and joyous! 

This year we have Robbie Bresland joining us on trumpet and Murray Kent on reeds. Both are exciting musicians who have played with top bands. We’re looking forward to a real traditional jazz treat in April!
