River Bugs at the Arc of Iris 25.05.19

From a wide range of musical backgrounds, Margaret River’s RiverBugs share a common love of swing era jazz standards with a sprinkling of rhythm and blues.

Since forming in 2017 they have a great following in the south west.

Singer Janine Andrews came from a professional jazz background in Paris before settling in Margaret River.

Bassist Viv Booker is a veteran of the Perth Jazz scene and Scott Wise on guitar, vocals and occasional blues harmonica is a newcomer to the band’s jazz repertoire but has a long history in blues, rock and folk music circles.
