Wayne Cornell sings at festival

Peninsula swing-jazz singer Wayne Cornell will feature at this year's Brisbane Water Oyster Festival for a third year.

"With only six weeks to go, the Brisbane Water Oyster Festival is shaping up to be another great day of entertainment for the whole family to enjoy," festival chairperson Ms Debra Wales said.

"The morning will come alive with the sounds of Wayne Cornell and his All Star Big Band.

"Wayne Cornell, formerly of the Delltones, has been in the entertainment business for years and has become recognised as one of Australia's great singer performers.

"He was twice been presented with MO Awards for best singer performer.

"He has received 14 MO Awards and ACE Award nominations for Best Male Singer Variety Performer, as well as nomination for Entertainer of The Year.

"Wayne has to his credit more than 30 performances at the Sydney Opera House, singing with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, the Australian Pops Orchestra, The Daly Wilson Big Band and the Billy Burton Big Band.

Ms Wales said theatre has also played a major part in Mr Cornell's career.

'He has enjoyed seasons at The Playhouse Theatre, The Sydney Opera House, The Australian Theatre and The Sun Alliance Theatre," Ms Wales said.

"He has played major roles in shows such as 'Crusade', 'Me and My Girl' and the Col Porter life story musical 'A Swell Party'.

"Wayne performed at the prestigious Bing Crosby Celebrity Concert in North Carolina for nine years sharing the stage with Bob Hope, Vince Gill, Johnny Mathis, Glen Campbell and Charley Pride.

'Wayne has enhanced his reputation in the music industry as a producer-director for major awards and other high profile corporate events."

Wayne Cornell will be performing on Sunday, November 9, from 9.30am to 12.30pm at the festival's main stage.
