The Copasetic year gets off to a furious start with gigs at the new east London jazz venue, Soul Mama, and a new project debuting at Brasserie Toulouse Lautrec – It Takes Two: Lulu Pierre and Marvin Muoneké revisit the great jazz duets (31st Jan).
Ineza’s debut album continues to earn great reviews (‘Immensely enjoyable … scores highly for its immaculately chosen song list’ – Jazzwise, December) and in February Ineza and the trio return to Hampsted Jazz Club, where they played their first gig in 2022.
In the meantime there are plenty of other live gigs – see below - and if you need more information, photos, or if you would like review tickets for any of them, please contact alewebb@gmail.com
