Wizard and Oz
The Hamilton Jazz Society proudly present Wizard and Oz in concert at the Waikato Commerce Club, 197 Collingwood Street, Hamilton on Sunday 24th November, 4.30-7.30pm.

Ever popular with our members and the wider music community, Wizard and Oz from Melbourne Australia return this month. They are taking two weeks to do a short tour which will include a return visit to the Hamilton Jazz Society. If you’ve seen them, you know! If you haven’t, check out one of the most dynamic duos in Australia, Andrew Farrell & David McMillan are the Wizard & Oz. Andrew started piano at the age of eight and studied classical music for many years. Since then he has played just about every style of music that he took a liking to. David started playing guitar when he was four and hasn’t looked back since. They met on the Mornington Peninsular in 1986 and have been playing together ever since.

Their playlist is enormous including covers and original songs in Popular Rock, pancreatitis Jazz, R&B, Blues, Boogie and Classical music styles. Wizard & Oz are much in demand at Jazz & Blues Music Festivals.

“They are mind numbingly spectacular” Neville Drummond, Inverloch Jazz Festival

Refreshments, snacks and meals are available for purchase from the club.
