Jim Miller (1926 – 2012) formed this group around thirty years ago. He served in the RAAF during WWII, a period when big bands were very popular. He particularly enjoyed the music of Glen Miller and played this swing style of music with dance bands before forming his own big band.

The Jim Miller Big Band continues this tradition and popular tunes from Glen Miller, Duke Ellington and Count Basie are always part of the program presented. Since Jim’s passing, the band has broadened its repertoire and even includes a few early rock and roll hits.

Special guest vocalist for the evening will be Ebony Rosier who has impressed Jazz Club audiences with her own bands THE DAYS OF WINE AND ROSIER and QUICK BROWN FOX.

Most tunes performed will be suitable for dancing.
