Jazz in the Vines 2016
Join us once again for a very special Jazz in the Vines concert, set to grace the Oratia Marketplace on Valentine's Day!
Proudly sponsored by Davis Funerals, guests will enjoy a fantastic lineup of live jazz in the charming surrounds of the Artisan Wines Vineyard, featuring Auckland's own Parisian-chic trio French Toast and the smooth, funky sounds of West Auckland's well-loved Leza Corban & Friends.
Bring a blanket to relax on the grass at front of stage, or secure a table to share with friends (seats up to 8).
Come along dressed in your jazz-themed finery to enter the best-dressed competition on the day and enjoy a fabulous range of silent auction items onsite.
The event features:
Auckland’s own Parisian-chic jazz trio French Toast with special guest Nigel Gavin.
"More French than the French", the trio of French Toast features Linn Lorkin, chanteuse, Hershal Herscher accordéoniste and Pierre Scott, bassiste. With a repertoire of authentic French chansons and forays into Italian and German, they have been delighting audiences in New Zealand for many years, taking them from the intimate café in the heart of Paris, to piazza on a warm Roman night and a Berlin cabaret.
"..the Piaf of the Pacific." New Zealand Listener
Smooth and funky local favourites Leza Corban & Friends.
Rolling out a range of jazz classics, funky grooves and nu soul, you’ll be swooning to the fantastic vocals of Leza Corban (Strawpeople, Union), backed by some of New Zealand's coolest musos. Leza will have you chilling back, and kicking off your heels for a groove on the grass. “Leza has delved into her record collection and picked some of the sexiest, smoothest and sassiest tunes ever made. We're talking Al Green, Erykah Badu, Aretha, Sade, Angie Stone, Stevie Wonder, Luther - if it's classic and gorgeous they do it!”
