Live music and entertainment: Vintage & Retro
Gavin Lazarus : Entertainer, Educator & Creator
Music is my life and my livelihood. My mission is to create, entertain & educate!
Entertainer
- As an entertainer I work solo or with a fantastic band! I am very versatile, but I specialise in retro styled music from the swing era via 50s and 60s through to classic pop & rock. The sets are a lovingly curated mix of solid gold hits together with the best songs you never knew you loved! Having performed extensively across Britain with my Foxes band or just me and my guitar: thanks to my vast repertoire, I’ve been called “the human jukebox”. I’ve now relocated to Brisbane, Queensland, Australia and am looking forward to becoming a part of the vibrant Aussie music scene!

Educator
- Music is best when it’ shared and I am passionate about helping people reach their musical dreams! I have been teaching guitar, voice, songwriting & tech, to people of all ages in schools and privately for a number of years, with excellent results.

Creator
- Writing, recording and performing original music is very much my happy place! I have been songwriting since I was 14, and performing and recording my music ever since. My hugely accessible current live ‘indie rock/pop’ set is a real party starter at festivals and pumping music venues.
