James Valentine’s Upbeat Revue

What happens when a jazz-loving, joke-cracking ABC radio host takes to the stage with a killer organ quartet? You get James Valentine’s Upbeat Revue - an afternoon of music and comedy, because why choose!

Expect sizzling organ riffs, comic detours, and radio stories you didn’t get to hear. James, best known as the voice of Afternoons on ABC, brings his razor-sharp wit and radio mischief to the live stage, backed by his powerhouse band: Darren Heinrich (organ), Sam Rollings (guitar), and Nic Cecire (drums).

And just when you think it couldn’t get better—enter Liz Player, the knockout vocalist from The Voice 2024, bringing serious fire to the mix.

Forget stiff concerts, come for the witty anecdotes, funky grooves, and sax solos with a respectable bedtime.

Music. Laughs. A dangerously good time - because arvos this fun should probably come with a warning label.
