Javier & The Wave at Heritage Hotel Bulli

🌊 Good People. Good Music. Good Vibes. ☀️

Get the crew together and celebrate the end of the year with Javier & The Wave - bringing soulful reggae, Latin rhythms and an infectious energy that's made for summer.

Led by charismatic Chilean musician Javier Rocha, the band is driven by a deep love of nature, music and culture. Their uplifting melodies and contagious passion create a feel-good atmosphere that brings people together, gets the toes tapping and the dance floor moving.

Javier's musical journey brought him from Chile to Australia, where he met Rocky Rochelli and began building the wave. Soon after, Sammy B on Bass, Will Ferguson on Lead Guitar & Vocals, and Chris Ryan on Keys & Sax joined the lineup, creating a dynamic mix of experience, rhythm, energy and charisma.

Expect reggae grooves, Latin rhythms, sunny melodies and plenty of good vibes - the perfect soundtrack for getting together with friends, celebrating the year that's been and enjoying a few hours of music and dancing.

Whether you're rounding up the crew, planning an end-of-year get-together or simply looking for a fun night out, Javier & The Wave will bring the soundtrack.

🎶 Reggae • Latin Rhythms • Summer Vibes • Dancing • Good Times

Come together, switch off and ride the wave. 🌊
