Rodger Fox's Wellington Jazz Orchestra

Rodger Fox’s Wellington Jazz Orchestra (WJO) are back at Sandwiches!

Wellington’s premier big band featuring the capitals finest jazz talent. Founded by New Zealand jazz-big band legend Rodger Fox this band covers all bases. Sizzling ensemble playing, stunning soloists and the desire to give people a good time through music.

Members of the WJO have performed with some of the biggest names in jazz including Michael Brecker, Bill Cunliffe, Joe Williams, Louie Bellson, Bob Sheppard, Bruce Forman, Bill Reichenbach and Jim Pugh to name but a few. This experience impacts on the band in a very positive way and it is hoped the band can further develop this link with national and international artists and become the jazz orchestra of choice for visiting jazz musicians.

A band of this nature can only be good for the Wellington music scene and further foster that Wellington is truly a musical hub for New Zealand.

The band will present its performance on Tuesday July 28 at Sandwiches Bar/Restaurant, start time 7.30pm (no cover charge). This will then become a monthly performance by the band so put it in the planner the last Tuesday of each month.

Support “live” music.
