Bebop Spoken There

Kurt Elling: ''There's something to learn from every musician you play with''. (DownBeat, December 2024).

The Things They Say!

This is a good opportunity to say thanks to BSH for their support of the jazz scene in the North East (and beyond) - it's no exaggeration to say that if it wasn't for them many, many fine musicians, bands and projects across a huge cross section of jazz wouldn't be getting reviewed at all, because we're in the "desolate"(!) North. (M & SSBB on F/book 23/12/24)

Reviewers wanted

Whilst BSH attempts to cover as many gigs, festivals and albums as possible, to make the site even more comprehensive we need more 'boots on the ground' to cover the albums seeking review - a large percentage of which never get heard - report on gigs or just to air your views on anything jazz related. Interested? then please get in touch. Contact details are on the blog. Look forward to hearing from you. Lance

In less than 20 minutes time @ The Globe ...

(Press release)

Formed in 2018 and led by internationally acclaimed Portuguese singer and guitarist, Sergio Prazeres, Bossa Trio has captivated audiences with its infectious, rhythmic Brazilian music – songs beautifully sung by Sergio in his native Portuguese, which capture the very pulse of Rio, the Copacabana and the inner-city Favelas with a host of traditional Brazilian musical forms – Forro, Capoeira, Samba, Partido Alto and of course, Bossa Nova, lying at the very heart of this wonderful band’s musicality.

Rhythmically tight and coupled with a wonderfully strong sense of engagement, you’ll immediately feel the warmth and charm of Bossa Trio – Sergio Prazeres (acoustic guitar and voice) Nick Gould (tenor sax) and Kevin Dorrian (drums and percussion)

[This will be our 100th livestream. Read more about this landmark achievement here.

 

TO VIEW THE LIVESTREAM


Buy a ticket and you will be sent an email containing a link to download a pdf file with information on how to view the livestream. You can also download the pdf file by clicking ‘Return to Merchant’ immediately after you have paid. You can watch the gig live and at any time during the following week.


Please note that you should receive two emails when you complete your order: one from PayPal and one from this website. It is the one from The Globe that has the link you need. If you don’t see our email please check your spam/junk folder. If there is nothing there please email events@theglobenewcastle.bar or send a message to our Facebook page.


A livestream ticket costs £7.50. You may like to pay more if you are feeling generous or if there is more than one person watching.  This would be really welcome at this difficult time when income for musicians and venues is drastically reduced.
