The Lounge Bar Lotharios feature Sydney’s Top 10 Vintage Jazz Musicians playing authentic 1920s dance band arrangements fronted by Sydney’s only authentic 1920s jazz singer, Greg Poppleton, under the musical direction of Geoff Power

Geoff Power is a world-renowned classic jazz trumpeter who has toured the US nine times, played jazz festivals and clubs in New York, Los Angeles and throughout the US, recorded a CD in New Jersey with leading NYC musicians including Vince Giordano, and played with many leading US musicians

Penrith RSL witnessed its biggest crowd ever for any jazz show. The room was full. The slow 1920s numbers filled the dance floor and the hot dance tunes had everyone’s toes a-tappin’
