“An unequivocally chilled-out and enthusiastic masterclass in Big Band virtuosity. The relaxed, understated style of their presentation is almost deceiving – these are some seriously talented musicians with a showcase of skill.”
— Review of “The Ages” show.
In a largely male dominated musical genre, 18 Christchurch women are changing the face of the big band jazz scene. This completely female, All Girl Big Band create a "powerhouse of sound" which will blow you away!
Hear the All Girl Big Band showcase some of their favourite tunes with vocalist Christchurch based/Tauranga raised, Naomi Ferguson. From swing to funk to pop and soul you will hear many tunes you know and love along with a few new ones.
Be prepared for an outstanding show of infectious joyful music making from these talented musicians.
