Bebop Spoken There

Ambrose Akinmusire: “ I am certainly always aware of what the masses are doing. And when I see too many people going one way, I'm going another way - even when I don't know what's over that way". DownBeat, March, 2024.

Don’t Miss The Indigo Voices December Gig At The Globe

This event is on Tuesday 19th December at 7.30pm. Admission is £5 and there are nibbles to eat.
I know these singers well, and I can tell you that the gig is well worth the admission price.

Alan Law (piano); Katy Trigger (bass); and Nik Alevroyiannis (drums).
The singers are: Barry Keatings, David Edgar, Carrie McCullock, Jenny Lingham, Miriam McCormick and Jen Errington. You’ll hear a varied selection of songs with a hint of Christmas, including  Misty; Don’t Go To Strangers; Bewitched; I’ve Got My Love To Keep Me Warm; Winter Wonderland and All My Tomorrows.   
Be there! Don’t miss yet another good night at the Globe.
