ROBBIE MANN & PAUL FURNISS: THE DOCTOR IS IN SESSION // Saturday, 20 January 2024 // 8:30-11:30 pm // Free Event; No Bookings: Walk-Ins Only // Venue: Two Doctors Whiskey Tavern; Fairmont Resort & Spa, 1 Sublime Point Rd, Leura.

/ ROBBIE MANN & PAUL FURNISS /
Robbie Mann is an exciting young piano virtuoso who specialises in an early jazz piano idiom known as 'Stride'. While it used to be the norm, the secrets of this manner of playing have been lost to time and very few masters exist in the world today. It is a technically demanding and dazzling piano style, with the pianist expected to undertake the role of a rhythm section in the left hand alone!

One of the most highly regarded reeds players in Australia, Paul has been part of Australia’s jazz scene since the 1960s. Besides leading the San Francisco Jazz Band since the late 1970s, Paul has been part of, and recorded, with numerous elite bands and musicians such as Graeme Bell, Tom Baker, John Sangster, Brad Child, Café Society, Howler’s Cotton Club, The Ozcats and many more. Paul's virtuosity has made him a welcome addition to countless jazz festivals around the world and is Australia's go-to early jazz reeds specialist.
