Join us at the Rising Sun Hotel affectionately known as ‘The Riser’ for a fun-filled night of sensational jazz, dinner and dance. Recapture the days when post-war jazz bands known as the fabulous “Dixie Landers’ and ‘The Tony Newstead Jazz Gang” rocked the music establishment and graced the stages and dance halls of old, earning them a place in music history.

Still today talented musicians regularly meet at ‘The Riser’ to share their love of music and to continue on the course of traditional Melbourne Jazz. The venue provides a perfect place for impressive modern jazz musicians such as Joe Roberto and guests Nina Ferro and Fem Belling. Every Tuesday and Thursday the soothing atmosphere entertains friends, wives, girlfriends and jazz enthusiasts with mellow tones which echo the swing bands of yesteryear. The Rising Sun Hotel is fast becoming known as a hot new jazz venue in Melbourne.

Do not miss the fun provided by inspiring artists who believe that the period of Australian Jazz has just begun. ‘The Riser’ is the place to be …it provides a hub for dedicated followers of Jazz in Melbourne who continue to walk the path of progressive music.
