Celebrate Satchmo’s birthday on Sunday, August 4, when the Central Coast Jazz League presents Greg Englert’s Louis Armstrong Birthday Band in the Parkview Room at Central Coast Leagues Club, Gosford, from 2pm-5pm.
From the music of the Hot Fives and Sevens of the 1920s through to Armstrong’s final recording of What A Wonderful World, this show should make for a great afternoon for both listening and dancing.
Band leader Greg Englert, an ardent Louis Armstrong fan, actually played one of Armstrong’s trumpets whilst touring in the USA.
He is ably supported by Col Pinner on reeds, Mitch Lowe on trombone, Fiona Lugg on bass, Carolyn Packer on piano and Graham Hilgendorf on drums.
The $10 entry fee includes a strip of raffle tickets.
