Stewart Curtis' K-Groove

The Brand New Album !!!!

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. Their cross over blend of Klezmer jazz with Latin flavours really goes down a treat & is fantastically received by exuberant audiences. Great music, great musicians - lousey jokes!

Jo Devall & friends
Always a real treat to have Jo sing with us. Over the years (& she's still in the blossom of her youth (ish)) Jo has fine-honed her tones to become the accomplished jazz vocalist she is today. With shades of Lady Day and Ella, Jo's melange of styles moves through straight jazz to blues and soul. & you can be guaranteed there'll be some great players in the band too.
Price: Members £3 non £5

John Fry leads the charge vocally, fronting one of Barnet's all-time most popular outfit. If you haven't been along to a Big Chief gig here at the Club - then do yourself a favour. Guaranteed full on entertainment with these guys. Classic front line of trombone, sax and trumpet, with organ, bass, drums and guitar. Have a wee bootchas at the guys' web site to get a flavour of their vast & varied repertoire.

The Shepherd / Garnett Quintet

Hang on to your hats chaps - it's gonna be a bumpy ride!

Looking forward to this one - Richard is fast becoming one of the hottest new talents on the UK jazz sax scene. He's been a regular feature soloist in NYJO & now with Steve Talyor's Big Band and has played alongside some of the greats. & this other chap... yes, it's Alex Garnett, of whom we had the pleasure (that don't sound right?) anyhoo, Alex guested with us a while back, and it was a great night. So put these two together & there's a recipe for some real hot stuff!
