Shirley and John married in 1947 and began their life together in Cootamundra, New South Wales. It was in Cootamundra that Shirley and John began building community through music. John played in a dance band with John and Eric Costelloe. His love of jazz was cemented when he began listening to jazz on the radio and 78 rpm records. When he and Shirley travelled to Melbourne on holiday, Frank Johnson took him to Collingwood Town Hall where his band Frank Johnson’s Fabulous Dixielanders played every Saturday night.
