Hills Big Band

About

Hills Big Band play swing, and a whole lot more, with style and groove. You’ll hear Count Basie, Glenn Miller, and beautifully presented works by Frank Sinatra and Billie Holiday. What’s more, you’ll also hear great arrangements of pieces by the Beatles, Michael Bublé, Earth Wind and Fire, Duke Ellington, Bon Jovi, Steely Dan, Van Morrison, Louis Prima, Quincy Jones and James Morrison. They handle everything, including major gigs at the Ellington Jazz Club many times and featuring in the “Live at the Northbridge Piazza” series in 2012 and 2014. Led by Musical Director Tom Salleo, future star trombonist/pianist and arranger, the members of the band are a disparate bunch from the Perth Hills and beyond. The players include professional musicians, teachers, ex-soldiers, university students, business people and retirees; all have a common interest in preserving and presenting all that’s best in big band music.Time: 7:30PM - 10:00PM (Doors open at 6:30PM)Venue: Milkbar - Civic Hotel band room, 981 Beaufort St, InglewoodTickets: Available at door only (General $20, Members/Students $15)Website: Jazz Club of WA ( https://www.jazzclubofwa.asn.au)
