THE MIKE GARNER JASS TRIO

No, it is not a spelling mistake! The Mike Garner Jass Trio is honoured to bring you an evening of music combining a playful, improvised spirit of the early nineteen hundreds with the musical elements of ragtime, blues, and popular music first called jass, and which became later known as jazz.

Endlessly youthful, Mike Garner and Robbie Lavën are no strangers to the Rotorua Jazz Club. Mike is a blues and ragtime guitar wizard with a warm, vibrant singing style ideally suited breathing life into his vast repertoire of pre-war blues and ragtime music. Robbie again brings his mastery of a dazzling array of musical instruments and promises to bring his notorious washboard. The third member of the trio, Grant Willis, is a fine double bass and tuba player originally from Wellington, with a background in dixie, whose many claims to fame include playing with the late Rodger Fox and his brother Chris in the brass band of their father Louis Fox.

A wonderful evening of joy and good music is guaranteed.
