Greasy Chicken Orchestra
About
On Saturday 31 May, from 7:30-10:30PM, they will perform 3 sets of their finely tuned brand of swinging 20s/30s jazz, with a focus on early Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong and Jelly Roll Morton, tunes including such early jazz classics as East St. Louis Toodle-oo, Chant of the Weed, and Frog-I-More Moore Rag, as well as stylistically harmonious originals."Johnston has always understood that jazz's history is a rich resource rather than a liability, and with this band he immerses himself almost completely in this era of energised and good-humoured dance music."
–John Shand, Sydney Morning Herald.
"This project serves to redefine the often-underrated jazz ensemble music of the 1920s and 30s, a timely mission which I warmly applaud."
(★★★★4 stars) Eric Myers, The Australian
