Ben Panucci Trio - Quick Tix

Event Date: 05/03/2014, 08:30 pm

Experience one of Sydney's best young jazz trios
"He scorches on his electric guitar, which sounds like it's set to 'attack' mode. He's kind of like a jazz Hendrix".
- Australian Stage

Guitarist and composer Ben Panucci is a key figure in a surprise contemporary movement of young musicians who go backwards, forwards and sideways throughout the jazz tradition... Ben Panucci's trio - with bassist Allex Boneham and drummer James Waples - combines several aspects of what they do, in an intimate setting. They can sound a bit like the Hot Club Of france, with that lightly stomping beat, then they can move into somewhat Debussyesque atmospherics and equally atmospheric free improvisation. Their playing in all idioms has a magic combination of authenticity and individuality. Entertainment values are high and so is sheer musicality. Spirit is the word.

"Panucci is a wonderful guitarist who can play fluent, clean modern jazz lines and also reach back into the colouristic, richly chorded effects of the earliest electric guitiarists (some of who were jazz players). He can remind you of one or other of the guitarists who played in Nat King Cole's early trios and quartets. With all that his own personality is instantly recognizable. Panucci and his trio are a delight."
-John Clare

New Album - "Short Stories" out now / Available on iTunes and bandcamp

The Laugh Stand At Harold Park

Event Date: 04/03/2014, 08:00 pm

With Radio & TV stars Rebecca De Unamuno & Dave Jory
Anything could happen on March 4 in The Laugh Stand at Harold Park Hotel.

Why? Because your Emcee is the highly acclaimed queen of fast-thinking, off-the-cuff improvisational comedy; Rebecca De Unamuno (‘The Slide Show’, ‘Talkin’ ‘Bout Your Generation’).

Rebecca has garnered rave reviews, sold out shows, won awards, wowed audiences and worked with the best in the business, including George Costanza himself, Jason Alexander!

Your Headliner is the great Dave Jory (Triple J, ‘Stand Up Australia’), and well, I’ll let him introduce himself in his own words:

“Somewhere in the muddy and often confusing space between ‘aspiring comedian’ and ‘washed-up comedian’, you’ll find Dave Jory. With his distinctive mix of hilarious jokes, aggressive eye contact and outrageous backstage demands, this is one comedian who has to be seen in order to be at least tolerated.”
Joining Bec and Dave is acclaimed author, comedy writer and comic, Sam Bowring (The Comedy Channel, ‘Stand Up Australia’), along with Sydney’s best rising stars; Penny Pederson, Shane Addison, Mathew Wakefield and Jazz Twemlow (ABC TV’s ‘The Roast’).

PLUS!! 2 FOR 1 meals ALL NIGHT!!

Brazil Meets Cuba!

Event Date: 28/02/2014, 09:00 pm

Non-Stop Carnival night of music
There is only a few ways to really describe what happens in our famous recipe "Brazil meets Cuba"

One way to describe it is "non-stop"!
As the night kicks off with an explosive set at
9pm
by DJ Dwight chocolate Escobar.
Latin Connoisseurs have witnessed and supported this renowned dj loyally
over the last 16 years, with a following of social media fans and salsa lovers alike theres no wonder why festivals like Splendour in the grass have booked Dwight to perform 5 years running.
With Dwight's set expect a repertoire specialising in high-end salsa that meets raw-samba beats somewhere in the amazon. A True depiction and study of both rhythms and cultures, not a clash but a sweaty harmony of BOOM!

10 pm
Gonzalo Porta & Sydney Salsa All Stars
(having won many Latin awards and 9 Gold Albums) explore the depths & tones of Cubas' Musical Genius, the only way it can be explored, through live stage-roaring songs.

The Basements underground locale is metamorphosed into a sun drenched Caribbean shore, complete with cigars, sand & a mean brass section... this truly is the reason we love Cuba!

11:30pm
Once you hear the dense addictive sound of heavy brazilian drums you know the producers will be none other than Rhythm Brazil
In true Rhythm Brazil style, they will Ravish the stage one gorgeous brazilian performer at a time until there will be no room for another feather. Then to your amazement more drums & amazing crowd-hyping-Brazilian instruments squeeze between the dancers to build an entity-of-awesomeness. That is undeniably the reason we love Brazil!

12:30pm
As Brazil meets Cuba, you meets them too and after you are well versed in all things samba/salsa, the party continues.... of course!
