The Duke
speaks up for jazz-lovers
Dell Gifford’s love for Jazz and
her commitment for The Duke as a venue to the BOI Jazz &
Blues Festival over the past seven years is so strong that
she had to ensure this major event kept its momentum in
2000.
“Due to circumstances beyond our control the Bay of
Islands Jazz & Blues Festival has been cancelled this year,”
she said. However, the Duke of Marlborough Hotel is hosting
its own Jazz Weekend to soothe the winter blues away.”
Already they have attracted internationally-acclaimed
bands Kokomo Blues, Alibis, Delta Swing and Stepping Out.
Top acts Soul Servants, Edwina Thorn, Mike Nesbit, Soul Sax,
the BOI College Band and the Windjammers are also very keen
to team up with the Duke to make it a memorable
weekend.”
The festival will kick off on Friday 11 August
in the evening, and wind down in the afternoon of Sunday 13
August.
