Next date: Friday, 04 July 2025 | 08:00 PM to 10:00 PM

“OZ JAZZ ROYALTY” – Sydney Morning Herald

Experience an electrifying night of contemporary jazz led by two of Australia’s most acclaimed saxophonists, Sandy Evans and Andrew Robson,

Evans’ powerful tenor sound and soaring soprano melodies combined with Robson’s great sense of groove and an uncanny instinct for melodic lyricism create a beautiful and engaging musical dialogue.

They’re backed by a powerhouse rhythm section of bassist Brett Hirst and drummer Hamish Stuart, who anchor the group with a rhythmic chemistry that is both solid and daring. “They can cruise like a Cadillac or bellow like a Harley Davidson”, keeping the music deeply grounded no matter how freely it flows.

The quartet moves effortlessly between blazing virtuosic solos, playful exchanges, infectious grooves, and moments of profound stillness.

Masters of their craft, they transform every performance into a thrilling conversation—one that invites listeners into the spontaneity, joy, and deep human connection that defines jazz.
