Rachael Henshaw Quartet
|
|
STOP PRESS..... STOP PRESS...... Frontier - postponed. Change to advertised programme:
Due to local planning & licensing regulations, an ancient bye-law has cropped up, and this states that on the second Wednesday of February, in an un-leap year, there has to be an attractive singer performing in Mill Hill. And.... seeing as how Rachael is so much prettier than any of the guys in Frontier, and the fact that they didn't sing.. well, there you have it! (Frontier will be back) Come and enjoy an evening of great jazz standards with our wonderful chanteuse, and some really great players too. Paul Weinreb on piano, Danny Manners on bass and Paul Downs on drums. www.rachaelhenshaw.com

Charlotte Glasson Band
|
|
It's just so difficult to say that you have favourites, when all of our players our just so good... but, oh, alright then... I love this band! There, I've said it now! Charlotte employs a skillful variety of masterful techniques in her playing styles - and there's never a dull moment... well, you never know what instrument she's going to play for a start! Occasionally, when she's not buzzing off to play all over the country & beyond - we pin her down to Mill Hill. So if you like your jazz with plenty of swing & a funky edge... you had better get your front row seat. Oh yes - Charlotte asked me which band version would I like - so naturally I asked for the Dave Holdsworth Funky Tuba version.... sorry, maybe you missed that - yes, I did say funky tuba!! Do have a bootchas at her web site: www.charlotteglasson.com

He's a saxmaniac is our Stew - playing everything from the tenor down to a picolino! & one thing for sure - Mr Curtis and his award winning band are always very welcome here at The Club.

We got snowed off at the last attempt in January, so here we go again. After their fantastic sell-out gig last summer with the Mill Hill Music Festival - we just had to get those girls back again.

And now, we're really pleased to say that we have the amazing Roz Harding on sax joining us as a special guest. Just tooo good to miss - so don't!
