Duo BC

Duo BC
Duo B.C. consists of two award-winning Christchurch musicians. Both graduates of the Christchurch Jazz School, pianist Catherine Wells and guitarist Bazi Baker have formed to create a powerful duo, playing mainly arranged versions of standard jazz repertoire. Their music, light and sophisticated, serves as a perfect vessel for those intimate dinnertime moods or relaxed afternoons. Vocals, or other instruments such as saxophone, drums and bass can also be provided if required.

Ideal for: background entertainment for a wedding reception, corporate event or private party
