Canberra is the undisputed centre of the world, and it's high time that that was reflected by its own time zone. No more basing things off Sydney, or on East Coasts that we don't even have access to outside of Batemans and/or Jervis Bays - we are the Nation's Capital, and by gosh we will capitalise on that. And what better way to commemorate this moment of new chronological and national standards, than with some old standards and some new standards - you guessed it, we're talking jazz standards, and even jazz originals, and even some jazz originals about Canberra. The sky - and Namadji National Park - is truly the limit.

Join Tom Priest (sax), Simon Halabi (piano and vocals), Mark Levers (drums), and Jeremy Tsuei (bass - in his very last gig before moving to the non-centre of the world, New York City, to study music) as they play a night of jazz and swing charting across 113 years of history. Expect classics such as "Take the Light Rail", "Falling Crace", "It Could Hackett to You", and "PerhAPS, PerhAPS, PerhAPS", "Night in Tuggeranisia", as well as originals from all four band members. And if you're a swing dancer - we very highly encourage you to come.

Canberra - it's time for a new standard.
