Jazz at the Philharmonic

Saturday 09 Apr 2016   8:00pm at Lincoln Drill Hall

For forty years jazz impresario Norman Granz took this show, which originally took place at the Philharmonic Auditorium in Los Angeles, around the world featuring many of the greatest names in jazz.

Tonight, a stellar 10-piece line-up presents its tribute to ‘Jazz at the Philharmonic’ using some of the most exciting players in the UK, under the direction of the ebullient Pete Long (M.D. of Ronnie Scott’s Big Band and long time sidesman with Jools Holland).

The excitement and frenzy of those original shows will be replicated by the showmen and virtuosos appearing on the Drill Hall stage.

‘Bristling, hard-swinging, surging, big-toned…......what a joy’.

The Blues Band at St. Mary In The Castle Saturday, April 23rd 2016

The Blues Band at St. Mary In The Castle Saturday, April 23rd

The Blues Band was formed in 1979, by ex Manfred Mann group members, Paul Jones and Tom McGuinness, originally to play a few pub gigs.

The Blues had always been their first love, indeed Manfred Mann for a short time backed Sonny Boy Williamson and Tom’s first band, the Roosters, also included a young Eric Clapton.

Paul & Tom were to be joined by slide guitarist Dave Kelly, who brought in Gary Fletcher to play bass guitar, while Hughie Flint sat on the drum stool.

Rob Townsend later replaced Flint, otherwise the line-up is still the same today.
