The Retrosonics played their first gig on 20 April 2008 at the Fremantle Jazz Club following six months of writing and rehearsing the music. The band is a joint venture between Roger Garrood and Alida Wright to play a mixture of soul and blues in a big band setting.
Gigs have included Freo Jazz, PJS @ Charles Hotel and York Jazz & Soul Festival.
Stage one: to prepare a working library of 'standards' partly from the Motown era and Stage two: compose original tunes and lyrics to use on a CD.
Stage one is very well developed and work has started on stage 2.
This information will be updated as progress continues.
