Sgt. Bertie’s Lonely Jazz Club Band

 

Sgt. Bertie, circa 2023.

Starting as an off-shoot of the Wellington City Shake-em-on-Downers, this slightly less chaotic but no less silly and entertaining quartet bring you the trad jazz sounds of New Orleans in it’s purest form.

Come and ‘take a closer walk with thee’s gents and you’ll be transported to Frenchman Street, with a libation in hand and your feet a tappin’.
