River City Jazzmen

In the best tradition of New Orleans and Chicago jazz from the first half of the 20th Century, the River City Jazzmen provide a rich repertoire of authentic standards for their audiences.

Recent winners of the Christchurch battle of the jazz bands, they pay homage to the great instrumentalists such as Sidney Bechet & Louis Armstrong as well as the English Trad giants the likes of Ball, Barber and Bilk.

Just as easily they can change tack to swinging jazz standards from the big Band era.
