cranky. One highly recommended thing to do is visit our events page

special events soon, its a good thing to do!

There
will be live music on Thursday with a special event featuring
Tony Coe, one of the true giants of British Jazz!
Coe began his performing career playing with Humphrey
Lyttelton's band from 1957 to 1962. In 1965 he was invited to
join Count Basie's band ("I'm glad it didn't come off - I would
have lasted about a fortnight") and has since played with the
John Dankworth Orchestra, the Kenny Clarke-Francy Boland Big
Band, Derek Bailey's free improvisation group Company, Stan
Tracey, Michael Gibbs, Stan Getz, Dizzy Gillespie and Bob
Brookmeyer, and performed under Pierre Boulez as well as
leading a series of groups of his own, including Coe Oxley
& Co with drummer Tony Oxley. He played clarinet on Paul
McCartney's recording of "I'll Give You A Ring", released in
1982, and saxophone on John Martyn's 1973 album Solid Air.
The rhythm section will consist of Hugh Mitchell on piano,
Dario Di Lecce on bass and Peter Chanter on drums. Their
job is to provide a platform for Tony to play the standards and
original material for which he is world-famous. Tony's magic is
in the way that he interprets standards and harmonises them in
his own way.

The
recently formed group are a fresh four piece ensemble from
Rochester. Comprised of violin, accordion, guitar and tuba they
play an eclectic blend and fast paced tango, classical and out
there pop as you've never heard it before.
They have been making a big splash with their Klezmer "Hit Me
Baby" and jazz tinged "Tainted Love" to much local acclaim.

FRIDAY 26th AUGUST
Blues Is A Primary Colour
Open from 5pm // Ale Happy Hour 6-7pm // Live music from 8:30pm
FREE
ENTRY
|
|
|
This
will be a music and projection performance through the prism of
blues, with live music by Justin Lavash and projections by
Darrell J?nsson. We are taken from the blues' Delta origins to
the primal electricity found on nearly every dance floor today.
An acoustic guitar and a dazzling right-hand and bottleneck
create a veritable blues orchestra fronted with a resonant
voice and engaging compositions, steeped in the spirit of the
folk and Delta blues. Projections weave through the music in
real time, integrating with the songs to produce an incredibly
compelling show.
