Zenith New Orleans Jazz Band

Touring each year and available for overseas festival appearances, jazz concerts, International club/Corporate engagements, gospel/church services, sea/riverboat cruises, New Orleans style street parades etc.
Australia's most traveled, authentic, New Orleans Style Jazz Band, this high energy 6 piece group from Sydney has within 18 years won an international reputation as Ambassadors of Australian New Orleans style Jazz. Numerous invitations to play are indicated including Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Switzerland (Montreux), Japan (Tokyo), Norway, UK & USA. 2003 brings an 11thoverseas Tour to Europe.
In Sydney their residencies guarantee and maintain good music entertainment with an authentic New Orleans’s style. Newspaper reviews give praise. Their popularity is demonstrated by the sell out of their nine CD's. Most of these were recorded live with an audience which is characteristic of Zenith as an attraction. Whether at festivals, in concert hall venues, on board ships, at casino/hotels, in jazz club setting, on the road in the Australian outback or involvement with the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games concerts the band is an institution.
