Ragtime swing to get ya long skirts raised a bit!
Friday 29th July Roseneath Centennial Ragtime Band with special guests the Gypsy Bounce are coming to town! and its FREE!
Inspired by the brass bands, blues and jazz music of New Orleans from the early 1900s, Wellington’s Roseneath Centennial Ragtime Band bring their mix of trad jazz, blues and ragtime down to the Bath House!
In the melting pot of turn of the century New Orleans, jazz, the blues and ragtime was the music for every occasion and station in life – from christening parties to funeral parades and every liquor-fuelled dance floor in between. The Roseneath Centennial Ragtime Band specialise in this hypnotic and irresistible musical force of nature that pulls heartstrings, shakes booties and stomps feet.
Mixing brothel swaggers with gospel shouts are, Dale “Dr” Jellyman on the honky-tonk piano, his brother Hamish, (trombone), brothers Mike (trap drums) and Adrian Jensen (guitar), Matt Enright (trumpet), Frankie Curac (clarinet) and Dan Yeablsey (contrabass).
The band don’t need much, just a piano, a few chairs and a barrel of beer!
FREE OL'TIMEY SHOW!
