Gig List

Get ready for a high-voltage evening of swing, swagger, and classic big-band brilliance as The Jay Cee Big Band presents a celebration of the legendary Count Basie. This special concert features an electrifying full performance of Basie's groundbreaking album The Atomic Mr. Basie - a landmark recording that forever redefined the big-band sound.

From the explosive punch of The Kid from Red Bank to the cool, irresistible groove of Splanky, you'll hear every chart as it was meant to be experienced: live, loud, and swinging with unstoppable energy. Alongside the full album performance, the band will bring you an evening of Basie favourites - those timeless charts that set dance floors buzzing and jazz halls roaring for decades.

Whether you're a lifelong Basie devotee or discovering the magic of the Count for the first time, this is a night of music that will lift you out of your seat and transport you straight into the golden age of swing.

Join us for a blast of pure jazz power. It's Basie. It's big. It's atomic.
