Auckland Domain
As part of Auckland Council’s Music in Parks, the Domain Rotunda hosts its annual free jazz event. This year we have the coolest new cats on the scene… as well as some names we know you’ll know.
First up at the Rotunda is Lady Larisa, an international jazz and soul singer whose captivating performances have taken her from the glitz of Hollywood to the soulful blues rooms of New Orleans.
Then get ready to fall into Love Square. Featuring the talents of Nick Atkinson, Finn Scholes and Alistair Deverick, this fine trio of musicians transport you on a jazz journey from the Caribbean to the Pacific—they’ll skank, they chi-cha, they cumbia across the stage!
Headliner Taylor Griffin takes you through to the end of the show with his combo of sophisticated fun. A drummer and music producer from our own Tāmaki Makaurau, Griffin’s debut EP, In Green, co-produced and mixed by Nathan Haines, reached the top 10 in the NZ Album Charts in 2024.
