Leeds
is a great place to play and listen to jazz – before the lockdown there were
more than twenty venues where you could hear regular live sessions and the city
has some of the finest jazz musicians in the UK too and we’ll be hearing from
some of those people in the coming weeks.
First
show goes out 9pm on International Jazz Day Thursday 30 April, 94.6m on
FM in Leeds and surrounding areas, or online on www.chapelfm.co.uk . It will feature a
live session from Leeds jazz singer Jennie Smith, with John
Chamberlain on piano and an interview with Leeds jazz musician Adrian
Knowles about his project “Sound of 59” recording music by Miles
Davis, John Coltrane, Charles Mingus and Dave Brubeck. “Sound of 59” were
originally going to be playing live at Seven Arts Leeds to celebrate
International Jazz day. This first Jazz UNLOCKED also features a new album
release – “About Time” by Leeds based trumpet player Malcolm Strachan.
