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.

Sunday 9 August, 8pm Live music from The Globe! … But you can only watch it on a screen, for now.

(Press release)

On Sunday 9 August Emma Fisk’s Hot Club du Nord will be performing at The Globe. The gig will be streamed live and you can watch it again at any time. The Globe will remain closed to the public so please do not try to attend the gig in person. We are planning to allow audiences in The Globe as soon as we can accommodate them safely and within government guidelines.

Emma Fisk's Hot Club du Nord bring to life the classic repertoire of Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli's Hot Club de France, conjuring up the swinging Gypsy Jazz of 1930s Paris.

Featuring British Jazz Awards Nominee, Emma Fisk on violin; guitar maestros Bradley Johnston and David Harris on guitars and rhythm king Bruce Rollo on double bass, Hot Club du Nord combine instrumental virtuosity, a deep love of the gypsy jazz style and a joyful energy that is absolutely infectious!
"For lovers of the classic Stephane Grappelli - Django Reinhardt approach, this is right up there amongst the best in the UK." - Paul Bream, Jazz Alert
So that the musicians can get paid, we ask you to pay a small ‘entrance fee’, which we recommend should be £5 per person. If you are able to pay a bit more this will be really welcome at this time when gig income for musicians has almost completely stopped.

TO VIEW THE LIVESTREAM GIG PLEASE DO THE FOLLOWING:
1. Make a donation via the following link.
https://bit.ly/3ikd7cX
Donate what you can afford, £5 per person is the suggested minimum. Please do so as early as possible, as a rush of requests just before the gig may result in some people missing the start.
2. When we have received notification of your donation we will send you an email with instructions on how to view the livestream. Please note that this is not an automated process. Our volunteers may not respond immediately. Also remember that our message will go to the email account associated with your payment which may not be the one you usually use.
3. We recommend that you access and save the link as soon as you receive our instructions. On Sunday 9 August 'doors open' at 7.45pm to give you time to check your set up, get comfortable and chat with other members of the audience.
