Indigo Voices @ The Globe: Tonight August 18: Preview

The mood is definitely indigo tonight at the Globe as the Indigo Jazz Voices sing a selection of jazz standards, blues and bossa.  In fact Mood Indigo is one of the songs that you’ll hear, as well as Night And Day, East Of The Sun and many other numbers.  We’ll be accompanied by a trio of Pete Gilligan (piano) Paul Grainger (bass) and Tom Atkinson (drums), and Ron Pattinson will also be popping up on piano. We are Jen Errington, Jenny Lingham, Carrie McCullock, Barry Keating and myself, Ann Alexander.
So to enjoy an evening of good singing and playing, get yourselves along to the Globe tonight, Thursday August 18, at 7.30pm

Submissions for review

Whilst we appreciate the many emails, texts, messages and other communications we receive requesting album/gig reviews on BSH, regrettably, we are unable to reply to them all other than those we are able to answer with a positive response.
Similarly, CDs received by post will only be considered if accompanied by sufficient background material.
Finally, bear in mind that this is a jazz-based site when submitting your album.

About this blog - contact details.

Bebop Spoken Here -- Here, being the north-east of England -- centred in the blues heartland of Newcastle and reaching down to the Tees Delta and looking upwards to the Land of the Kilt.
Not a very original title, I know; not even an accurate one as my taste, whilst centred around the music of Bird and Diz, extends in many directions and I listen to everything from King Oliver to Chick Corea and beyond. Not forgetting the Great American Songbook the contents of which has provided the inspiration for much great jazz and quality popular singing for round about a century.
The idea of this blog is for you to share your thoughts and pass on your comments on discs, gigs, jazz - music in general. If you've been to a gig/concert or heard a CD that knocked you sideways please share your views with us. Tell us about your favourites, your memories, your dislikes.
