Matthew Ives and his Big Band at the Buckland Church

There's no better way to enjoy summer than listening to live music in the outdoors.  Enjoy a lazy Sunday afternoon of jazz at the Buckland Church as part of the ongoing fund raising efforts by Friends of Buckland Church - Tasmania featuring Hobart based jazz orchestra Matthew Ives and his Big Band.  

Bring a folding chair or picnic blanket and relax in the church yard to the sounds of a 17 piece jazz orchestra. Matt Ives Big Band play everything from Sinatra, Glenn Miller, Ella Fitzgerald and Benny Goodman through to tunes from the 1960s, 70s, 80s and beyond. You will be foot-tapping, finger-clicking and jiving away all afternoon.  Featuring guest vocalists Roz Pearson, Robyn Lawrence-Vicks and Andrina Rackett.

Food and drinks will be available to purchase throughout the afternoon from Robbie's Wood Fired Pizzas, Jasmine Kitchen, Valhalla Ice Cream & Coffee Truck and The Vestibule Bar.

All profits from ticket sales go towards the Friends of Buckland Church (FOBC) fundraising goal and many of our food & drink stalls donate to FOBC from their sales on the day.
