Air Force Band: Rhythm in Blue

  • Free
  • Music

Experience the electrifying sounds of the Air Force Big Band, the Royal Australian Air Force's premier 17-piece swing and jazz ensemble.

Dedicated to celebrating and promoting the Air Force and its core values, the band delivers unforgettable performances at major community festivals, public events, schools, and formal Defence Force functions.

Rooted in the rich military heritage of the 1940s Big Band Swing era, this dynamic ensemble echoes the golden age of jazz that once lifted the spirits of WWII troops. Their diverse repertoire features classic swing, innovative concert jazz, and original compositions crafted by the band members themselves.

Join us for a captivating musical journey that honours tradition while showcasing contemporary talent.
