The Neo Hot Jive Orchestra

The Neo Hot Jive Orchestra is a Wellington-based 17-piece jazz orchestra led by eclectic saxophonist Oscar Lavën.

They're raging, engaging and focused on stonking performances of hard-grooving retrospective New Zealand original works played with the spontaneity and delectably gratuitous improvisations of a small group.

This guerilla-style big band spews out highly danceable vibes in an enthusiastic homage to the classic big band era, and a small ever-changing selection of the best era-defining covers.

17 of Wellington's most killer musicians at the finest music venue in the land; this is one not to miss.
