Four Leeds College of Music students head up the road
to Darlington to play a gig at Darlington Jazz Club on Sunday (February 14).
Drummer Abbie Finn is from around these parts and will surely show her band
mates the lay of the land. The Quakerhouse, tucked away in Mechanics’ Yard, is
as good a place as any to start. A proper pub, the Camra awards adorning the
walls are testament to its popularity and good beer. There must be a beer
drinker in the band, they can’t all be new breed student tee-totallers!
Abbie, a one-time member of the County Durham Youth
Big Band, will be joined by Jake Rider (alto sax), Sam Lowther (guitar) and
bassist Manraj Lall. The quartet will receive a warm reception in the upstairs
room at the Quakerhouse. If Abbie’s Equinox band mates have half her talent
Sunday evening in Darlington has all the makings of a memorable gig. Doors at
5:30pm, first set 6:00pm. Arrive early, it will
be a full house.Russell.
