The Gumnut Memorial Band:

Barney Wakeford and Johnny Maddox

Two intuitive improvisers who have been playing together for a decade.  Piano, double bass, kazoo, and the unexpected.

John Harkins, Kevin Hunt, Barney Wakeford, Gavin Ahearn

everybody's favourite gypsy,
the man who never stops playing,
the face behind the bass,

John Maddox

Craig Scott is one of Sydney’s most amazing Jazz double bass players... and probably the most influential. He is the head of Jazz Studies at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music and has taught most of the musicians who have been through the course in the past 20 years.

For this special duo concert he teams up ex-student Spike Mason on saxophones. Together they will play a collection of songs they love.

16 solo pianists over four weeks.  This series was largely responsible for our decision to host concerts more often.

Four Thursdays in November, 2006 : Barney Wakeford curated this incredible series of solo pianists.
