About Time Jazz Trio

About Time' is a for-real modern jazz trio playing modern swing funk fusion jazz... from legends Chick Corea to Bill Evans and more...plus originals.

Schnappa Rock Restaurant & Bar is legendary. It's a great venue for a Sunday afternoon !Nick and Esther's welcoming staff and gorgeous marina-side location give it a relaxed atmosphere to go with the delicious lunch treats and spacious bar.

Family friendly. Come along with the family and enjoy some jazz. We're local Whangarei/Ngunguru musicians with years of passion for interesting jazz - I'm Matt Hennessy, a true jazz drummer (soft boom and bash); Matt Watson (not the intrepid fisherman by the same name, darn) is accomplished on both acoustic and electronic and also keyboards, trumpet, flugelhorn. To keep it all together is John Fraser (the Ngunguru local) on electric and stand up bass. Yes, we all work in tech by day so playing music is a creative break.

Live jazz 3rd Sunday. We play a wide range of jazz. We put some very rough cut homemade video on YouTube to show our range of sophisticated yet cruisey jazz. Forgive the quality but you'll get the idea we play standards, swing, Latin, funk, bebop, Coltrane, Davis, Corea, Evans and between.

See you at Tuts - the 3rd 2012, 1 - 4pm. We're conversation-friendly and aim to please jazz - food - drink lovers.
