BOB SEDERGREEN AND FRIENDS With Very Special Guest from Perth - Bridget Allen | ||
|
Saturday 6th December
2025 Time: 8:00 pm |
An evening in concert with Bridgette Allen, voice, Bob Sedergreen, piano, As a jazz pianist Bob’s
legendary status need no confirmation. He has performed with some of the world’s best jazz players. His empathy with Bridgette Allan
stems from many years of collaboration and touring, her repertoire spans from Brubeck to Monk to Broadway show tunes. Only Bridgette
can deliver melody and lyrics in her own inimitable and hypnotic style, and we are very fortunate she has decided to fly over from
Perth Bridgette has requested to work with drummer Gordon Pendleton Bob’s lifelong colleague and the
propulsive driving bass of Annete Yates These twos should prove to be a powerful rhythm section. This will be an amazing reunion and
a gig not to be missed! | |
