Simon & George
Join award-winning pianist Simon Tedeschi and acclaimed jazz partner-in-crime George Washingmachine as they return to The Joan, this time with a hand-picked six piece jazz band in tow.
Together they’ll swing and improvise over their favourite classics from the jazz repertory, including Benny Goodman’s Don’t Be That Way, Duke Ellington’s It Don’t Mean A Thing, Oscar Peterson, Fats Waller and a little Gershwin too.
The six-piece jazz band will include Ben Lerner (Alto Saxophone), Andrew Robertson (Tenor Saxophone), Ray Cassar (Trumpet), Rhys Moore (Trombone), Brendan Clarke (Double Bass) and Tim Geldens (Drums).
