Event Details
Legendary saxophone/vocalist, gregarious and entertaining storyteller, Wilbur Wilde is in fact one of the most under-rated figures in the Melbourne jazz scene, way back to the 1980s when he lead a dynamic and exciting ensemble of leading soloists including musicians such as Paul Grabowsky.
Highly regarded by many of his jazz musician peers, Wilbur continues to wow audiences with his warm rich Dexter Gordon like sound and masterful execution of his instrument in a relentlessly groovin and swinging fashion.
