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. Another highlight of Jaider’s career was sharing a gig with superstar Isaac Hayes and his band during an Australian Tour in 1980.

In 1984 Jaider arrived in Perth and soon formed the enormously popular BRAZILIA and during his seven years in Western Australia had various performances for the Burswood Casino, Channel 7, 9, and 10 and has completed various recording at the ABC Radio Stations and Live to Air programmes throughout the country as well as performing for the JAZZ YATRA in India and the HOUSTON INTERNATIONAL MUSIC FESTIVAL IN 1988 (USA).

WOODFORD FOLK FESTIVAL. 95 to 99 then in 2001 performances with his 6 piece band JAY AND THE BRAZILIAN MALANDROS, Percussion Workshops and various SOLO PERFORMANCES.
