The Rookies are back at the JazzLab, doing Tuesday nights since November 2020, two sets from 7.30.

The Rookies were born in the spring of 2014 on the forgotten end of Brunswick Street in a room full of sweat, beer and dim lights at The Rooks Return. What started as a quiet set of background jazz for punters quickly devolved into an uninhibited, drunken dance party reminiscent of a time almost forgotten. 

Band leader Greg Sher (alto saxophone) is joined by Tom Sly (trumpet), Joel Trigg (piano), Oscar Neyland (double bass) and Chris Cameron (drums and cymbals), with special guests from Australia and overseas sitting in every week.
