Oscar Lavën’s Rock n Roll Sax

Friday, 15 December 2023 @ 8:30 pm - 11:00 pm

Wellington blues gigs

This is always a high-energy, fun night with lots of dancing.

 

Oscar Lavën’s high energy brings the band to life which quickly spreads around the room, so the audience is dancing and grooving before you know it.

 

Oscar is an outstanding saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist, able to perform many styles with great dexterity. Whether jazz, swing, classical, or RnB boogie like we will have this week, Oscar is a consummate performer.

 

He, along with other top-class local musicians, makes a much-requested return for a special gig of hot, honking, rock ‘n’ roll sax licks.  Get ready for great ‘50s R&B and blues grooves from saxophonists like Sam Butera, King Curtis, and Earl Bostic.

 

Oscar will be joined by among others, Aleister Campbell on guitar and vocals, Damien Forlong on trombone, and Patrick Bleakley on bass.
