Bebop Spoken There

Abbie Finn: "Even though there's a lot of great work being done to promote women in jazz, I still come up against some attitudes! I pulled up at a recording session with my drums in the car and the studio owner said, 'I'm sorry, this space is reserved for the drummer!'" - (Jazzwise April 2023).

The Things They Say!

Hudson Music: Lance's "Bebop Spoken Here" is one of the heaviest and most influential jazz blogs in the UK.

Rupert Burley (Dynamic Agency): "BSH just goes from strength to strength".

'606' Club: "A toast to Lance Liddle of the terrific jazz blog 'Bebop Spoken Here'"

The Strictly Smokin' Big Band included Be Bop Spoken Here (sic) in their 5 Favourite Jazz Blogs.

Ann Braithwaite (Braithwaite & Katz Communications) You’re the BEST!

Holly Cooper, Mouthpiece Music: "Lance writes pull quotes like no one else!"

No More Tees Hot Club @ Cleveland Bay

Ron Hampton, guitarist and general factotum of the Tees Hot Club, sent me this item of news: 
It is with regret that Tees Hot Club have to announce a halt to their fortnightly appearances at the Cleveland Bay. Unfortunately, attendances have deteriorated over the last six months, proving it to be impossible to continue. 
We wish to thank all of our regulars for their attendance over the last few years and look forward to seeing you at Dormans Club where Tees Hot Club will continue to play and any further THC shows in the future.
We're sad to hear that Ron, but I know you'll keep us updated on any future changes and I hope next Thursday's jam at Dorman's goes well.
