Doc ‘n the Croc comprises simply a flugelhorn and guitar for easy listening to accompany a cocktail party. When people want to hear and be heard - by those around them.

Jeremy Olivier, a native of Zimbabwe, where the Crocs grow big and wild, has reluctantly accepted the title, Croc. To be sure his wonderful smile can be compared to this giant animal, but his nature is as much unlike a Crocodile as can be and suits him perfectly for the wonderful music he plays and sings. Michael Blake met Jeremy at a musical function where they were asked to perform at the last moment. Their spontaneous meeting sparked such wonderful tones that they decided to keep playing on and on. The result is something quite magic!

Jeremy’s background is mostly jazz and folk, while Michael has been active as a classical musician for decades, having performed throughout the USA and Europe, finally settling in Cape Town in 1986. He has performed with the Cape Town Symphony Orchestra until fairly recently, when he decided to go freelance and to do more teaching.
