Bebop Spoken There

Art Blakey: "You [Bobby Watson] don't want to play too long, because you don't know they're clapping because they're glad you finished!" - (JazzTimes, Nov. 2019)..

New Saltburn venue for The Jazz Lads

The ‘Jazz Lads’ are back at Saltburn Golf Club on Sunday 7th May and Sunday 4th June.
They are: Ray Dales, one of the finest sax players in the area, Jeremy McMurray, virtuoso keyboard player and leader of the Pocket Orchestra, Paul Smith, drummer exceptional and a grand master of his craft, highly talented guitarist Ian Bosworth, of both Tees Hot Club and Musicians Unlimited fame, and Adrian Beadnell, starting his career with Chris Rea in Saltburn more years ago than he cares to remember, on bass. 
Building on their successful Sunday evening at the Club on the 2nd April, where they were joined by guest guitarist Paul Donnelly, the lads are very much looking forward to playing another programme of exciting Jazz numbers to an appreciative audience on the 7th May and 4th June.

Tickets for future evenings can be bought at the door and cost £5.00.  The music starts at 8.00.
