18th November 2025 – Danica Elle & Friends present a Tribute to Frank Loesser

From 6:45pm we welcome the Concordia Stage Band (2025 ABODA winners, top division), with some faces of the future you will want to say “I remember them from…”

Then, from 7:30pm…

A tribute to jazz composer and lyricist Frank Loesser, who brought us such classics as Baby It’s Cold Outside and I’ve Never Been in Love Before. Danica explores the repertoire of some of his adored favourites and the lesser-known (or is that “Loesser-known”) melodies.

Danica Lammertsma – vocals
Dave McEvoy – piano
Triniti Canini – trumpet
Daisy Davidson – sax
Tash Stevens – bass
Jackson Mack – drums
