Jaider De Oliveira

Having had a successful career in his homeland Brazil, Jaider De Oliveira arrived in Sydney in 1970 and quickly made a name for himself in the local jazz scene. His Band Jay and the Brazilian cockroaches were featured at the Sydney International Music Festival, supporting blues greats Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, and supported Freddie Hubbard at the Birkenhead Point Festival.
