Les Goodman
Les Goodman is the bandleader for The Jazzmanian Devils, since 1983. The Jazzmanian Devils are the original swinging hipsters from Vancouver BC Canada. Since 1983, they have been burning up dancefloors, nite clubs, and various premier stages across Canada. Don't even ask how many weddings they have made perfect (counselling services are extra).
Founded in November of 1983, The Jazzmanian Devils are involved in ritual jazz sacrifice and swing/jump and jive. The jazz is sometimes sacrificed in the interests of alcohol; the alcohol is rarely sacrificed in the interests of jazz.
In 2004, The Jazzmanian Devils celebrated 20 years, and the Mayor of Vancouver Larry Campbell declared an official Jazzmanian Devils Appreciation Day in their honour.
