The ageless Chris Barber chalks
off another gig on Thursday (December 11) at Sage Gateshead. One thing is for
sure, the man won’t be coasting. Leading a band with an enthusiasm that puts to
shame some others several decades his junior, you’ll get two hours worth or so
of committed music ranging from New
Orleans to Ellington to the blues.
His band, including young recruit
Amy Roberts, will be kept on their musical toes, no slacking allowed! The
spirit of the Three Bs (now down to one) lives on; integrity, an appreciation
of their life-long fan base hanging on in there and a determination to give the
audience a great time. If any non-American jazz musician can be described as
the ‘real deal’ it’s Chris Barber – a genuine, passionate, ambassador of the
music.
The Ambassador invites you to his
party this Thursday (December 11) in Hall Two at Sage Gateshead. Please be
seated by eight o’clock. A few tickets remain unsold, so to avoid
disappointment contact the box office on 0191 443 4661.
Russell.
