Dirty Jazz Cocktail Hour
Jessie Gordon is no stranger to the darker side of jazz. Join her for a
thrilling speakeasy adventure at Perth's premiere jazz club. Joined by the
brilliant and handsome pianist Chris Foster, Jessie delves into the depths
of the dirtiest jazz tunes around.
There are songs for the swooning moonshiners, those inclined to wine, those frisky for whisky and some odes to our favourite friends, those tenders of the bar. In the dark, dingy corners and smokey recesses of the Golden Era of Swing, there are songs for all your favourite drinks, there is room for all your dirty deeds and time for you to unwind with a refined beverage. The team at the Ellington are putting together a specially crafted drink for the evening to match the theme, ask for a Filthy Gordon when you arrive!
