- **Event Name**: Down South Jazz Club Presents: The Senator's Swinging Six
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 19 Mar, 2026 at 09:30 am
- **Event Description**: On 19th March at Club Sapphire the Down South Jazz Club is proud to be able to present what promises to be a truly exceptional night of jazz with “The Senator’s Swinging Six”, led by trombonist and singing entertainer extraordinaire Simon Bartlett, He will be supported by Paul Dion on keys and reeds, Tim Benson on trumpet, Saul Richardson on guitar, Mike Walsh on bass and David Hewitt on drums.

As a young man, Simon Bartlett originally wanted to be an astronomer, but the prospect of working nights and travelling to remote centres made him turn to music - if only he’d known what that career path would lead to! After completing his studies at The Sydney Conservatorium, Simon played in local jazz bands in Orange before deciding to return to Sydney to further his studies in jazz. Simon joined the Royal Australian Navy Band as a trombone player, quickly finding his way to the front of the bandstand as a soloist and singer and is now the Royal Australian Navy Jazz Band’s Musical Director.

Paul Dion, Mike Walsh and David Hewitt played for the Down South Jazz Club last month with Bev ‘Banjo’  and Co, which was an excellent night and the three complemented the band very well. Trumpeter Tim Benson made his debut for the DSJC last year with “The Mark VI Ensemble”, while guitarist Saul Richardson has entertained Merimbula on many occasions, both at the Down South Jazz Club and Merimbula Jazz Festivals.

This special and very enjoyable night of jazz will cost $20 for jazz club members and $25 for visitors, with music commencing at 7.30 pm. Bookings can be made by sending an email to bookings@downsouthjazzclub.org.au or using the form on the WhatsOn page on our web site. You can also call Pam or George Pitt on 0479 065 590, or just turn up on the night and pay at the door. The Club Bistro opens at 5.30 pm if you would like a meal before the show.
