LEGENDS OF AUSTRALIAN JAZZ,

WANDERLUST CELEBRATE 25 YEARS

"A reminder of the 1985-95 decade, a golden age in Sydney jazz when an outstanding generation of musicians emerged. Many of them, invariably bandleaders themselves, are in Wanderlust and now are at the top of their game" - The Australian

"They have immensely enriched the musical life of this country." - The Australian 

ARIA Award-winning, iconic Sydney all-star band Wanderlust celebrates their 25th anniversary this year, playing to packed out clubs in Sydney and Canberra and now Berry Jazz! They'll be playing two long sets with a half-hour interval. Dinner service available until 8.15pm; tables and seats available on a first-come first-served basis.

Wanderlust first appeared as part of the creative surge that swept Sydney’s jazz scene in the early 1990s, and their core ensemble has remained consistent over 25 years.

Under the leadership of one of Australia’s best trumpeters and composers, Miroslav Bukovsky, Wanderlust has forged a uniquely identifiable sound blending global beats and melodies with jazz improvisation. Wanderlust has performed at major festivals across Europe, Asia and Australia.
