Preview: Gaz Hughes - Hexham & Newcastle (Sunday 16)

You're yearning for an explosive bebop gig? Look no further! Tomorrow (Sunday) right here in the Bebop Spoken Here heartland there will be not one but two opportunities to catch the Gaz Hughes Trio. A welcome visitor to the region, drummer Gaz returns with his ace trio - Andrzej Baranek (piano) and Gavin Barras (double bass) - to play numbers from the trio's latest album, Nuclear Bebopalypse. 

Gaz's gigs are many and memorable...Gaz's all-star Art Blakey set (Gosforth Civic Theatre), Dean Stockdale's superb Oscar P set (Lit & Phil) and trio gigs across the region. At three o'clock tomorrow Gaz and the boys will be tearing it up at Queen's Hall, Hexham before moving on down the road to the Globe on Railway Street in Newcastle for an eight o'clock start.
