We pay tribute to Jackie Orszaczky

Raise the Bar would like to pay tribute to musician Jackie Orszaczky after his recent passing on February 3, 2008. Jacks death leaves a void in the musical and cultural landscape of Sydney of unparralled proportions.

Jacks live gigs were legendary, in recent years having  residencies at the Maquarie Hotel, @Newtown, The Rose of Australia Hotel in Erskineville, as well as going waaaaaaay back to the Harbourside Brasserie, the Basement, and 'Round Midnight in Kings Cross.

His contribution is well documented in these articles in the Sydney Morning Herald

Tributes are being posted on his website at Orszaczky.com.

Jack was particularly close to a certain member of Raise the Bar, and took great delight in being a part of the campaign.

Thanks Brother Jack - we will miss you terribly.
