Sing Sing Swing

 

Our Trio of Peter McLaughlin bass, Kevin Collins drums / vocal, and Harry Lynn piano / vocal, has 180 years of experience.  Many of those years have been spent playing together, so in the words of music legend Quincy Jones, we have “THE GLUE” [Rapport]

Peter – Started his adventure with music learning classical piano when young and attended the Conservatorium of Music in Sydney. When he was 16 years old he took up guitar and the bass which led him into playing in dance bands and many other night-time venues in the 60’s and 70’s. After many years of studying and playing he became a professional musician and has toured with the Tommy Tycho orchestra, Henry Mancini Concert tour, James Morrison, Tommy Emmanuel, John Williamson and many other well known artists.  He now teaches music at Mount Saint Patricks College in Murwillumbah and lives on his farm at Burringbar in New South Wales.

Kevin –  drums and vocal, Kevin was bandleader and singer for 25 years at that live music icon,  The Bourbon & Beefsteak Bar Kings Cross, Sydney.

 

 

Harry – Has been recognised as one of the most versatile piano / keyboard players around. His career began in Melbourne in 1960  followed by a year in Singapore 1969-1970, followed by 2 years touring with Matt Flinders, then a move to Sydney as musical director for the Claire Poole singers and an 11 year membership of the multi “MO” Award winning Dave Bridge Showband.  Moved to the Gold Coast in 1990 and has had a residency at Twin Towns Services Club since arriving. From 2004 -2010 led the weekly gig  with his Quartet at the the Art Centre’s intimate and  successful jazz venue, The Basement.
