Bebop Spoken There

Jennifer Wharton: "People forget that the trombone is so glorious. It can be like going to church, or getting ready for battle. It can be a lot of things....For a longtime I was the only female trombonist in New York," - (DownBeat May 2021)

The Dynamic Duo @ The Black Bull

The north east of England is fortunate in having many fine guitarists working regularly in the region and beyond. Two of the best are heading to Bridge Street, Blaydon this Sunday (June 18). Virtuoso is the word when talking about James Birkett and Bradley Johnston. At eight o’clock on Sunday the guitar duo will take to the stage to present an impeccable selection of jazz guitar tunes drawn from the early masters (Eddie Lang, Carl Kress, Dick McDonough and others), stopping off to dazzle the audience with, perhaps, Doxy, then taking a look at the duo’s mutual favourite, Pat Metheny. More, Birkett and Johnston will bring one or two of their own compositions to the table.
Blaydon Jazz Club presents, as Humph would have said: the very best of jazz. Sunday’s concert is top drawer material. It is no exaggeration to suggest that you will hear world class jazz guitar at the Black Bull. Make a note of the date – Sunday 18 June. Arrive in good time to bag a front row seat.
All proceeds from the evening will be donated to Marie Curie Cancer Care in memory of Margaret Barnes.
