Where: Pizza Express Jazz Club. 10 Dean Street. London, W1D 3RW.
When: 27 July. Doors open 7:PM. Performance 8:30PM.Cost: £15.
Featuring: Jeremy Kahn, Shlomo, Jasper Høiby, Adam Waldmann, Katie Elliott, Pat Davey, Aisling Lavelle, Helen Burnett. Two exciting names in British jazz, Jasper Høiby and Adam Waldmann will feature in the hotly-tipped new act ‘The Door Mouse Quintet’. The group, led by Jeremy Kahn, meet for a special performance alongside world-renowned beat boxer Shlomo on 27 July in what promises to be an unforgettable evening of cutting-edge performance and improvisation. The gig, at the Pizza Express, Dean Street Jazz Club will act as both a showcase and as a warm-up concert for a forthcoming tour planned for 2012. The gig will feature music from the album Door Mouse, which consists exclusively of material written by Jeremy Kahn. Jeremy will be joined on stage by his son Shlomo, possibly the world’s finest human beatboxers, and the first ever World Loopstation Champion. Shlomo, an Artist In Residence at the Southbank, has performed with a diverse range of artists such as DJ Yoda, Bjork, Martha Wainwright, Hexstatic, Portico Quartet, Jarvis Cocker, and Mad Professor and sparks will fly as he performs alongside the internationally renowned Jasper Høiby whose recent album Alive with his trio Phronesis won Jazz Wise and Mojo’s ‘Jazz Album of the Year’ awards, and Adam Waldmann who has been described as "a young master in the making" by Time Out and was selected last year by world renowned Jazz and World Music promoters Serious for their groundbreaking initiative Take Five. The Door Mouse Quintet also features group co-founder and hotly-tipped flautist and pianist Katie Elliott, who many will know from the Under the Edge Jazz Club, and Pat Davey who is well known for his collaborations with The F-ire Collective, plus guests.
