A quick rehearsal blast of Sing, Sing, Sing with Guy Barker and Giacomo Smith. Just one of the 20s and 30s goodies on the way on 10 April NCH when we celebrate exactly 100 years since the publication of The Great Gatsby!

The Garibaldi in Northampton is a special place.
Northampton itself isn’t exactly awash with money and the work the team are doing there is utterly invaluable.
Please consider chucking a few quid in to this fundraiser to keep this place alive.
Thanks.

My latest review for UK Jazz News (@LondonJazz).
Nordsnø Ensemble feat Kit Downes. This is a properly intriguing proposition, brining together contemporary jazz, Scandinavian folk tradition and Downes on a church organ! Great stuff.

Want to make plans for 2025? Come to a JR Sextet show. This, on April 3, is a much bigger gig than we usually do but it’s now selling fast.
It’s Sunday (I’m told) so let me pimp my wares. Happily for us but frustratingly for others our JR Sextet gigs with @pizzajazzclub sell out a while in advance. So we’re doing a bigger one on April 3 at Woolwich Works, a fab venue on the Lizzie Line.

Bye bye ‘X’…
What a fetid, nasty club of ghouls and ghastlies you’ve mostly become.
Sincere apols to the good stragglers…friends, followers and ace folk.
I’m mostly rubbish on social media - but do find me on insta, FB, Threads, BlueSky etc
Merry 🎄
