Voice at the Hideaway Launch Tomorrow!

Hello folks

Just a quick post to let you know about an exciting new night we’re starting over at the fabulous Hideaway in Streatham, which launches tomorrow night Thursday May 3rd!

The idea is to showcase new and emerging vocalists and give them a chance to perform their material in a great venue. If you haven’t been to Hideaway yet, frankly you’re missing out. Recently voted Venue of the Year at the Parliamentary Jazz Awards, this relatively new club is fast becoming the capitol’s premier jazz venue. And the food is bloody excellent…

The Voice shows will be on the third Thursday every month, but we’re launching the night tomorrow (3rd May, and we’ll be back again on the 24th). The band will feature Janette Mason on piano/keyboards, me on bass (obviously) and Frank Tontoh on drums. We’ve got some great singers coming down tomorrow including Polly Gibbons, Fran Lewis and Peter Borthwick. A great mix of jazz, soul and blues. It’s gonna be great so you should all come down. And because it’s the launch tomorrow; it’s free entry!!

See you all there.

Video from This Morning with Clare Teal

Hello folks,

Thought I’d post this video of us playing on This Morning on the blog. It’s up on my videos page too just in case…

We had a fun morning over at ITV and were well looked after by the lovely crew there. And it’s always good to see Eamonn and Ruth.

Also think his is probably the only video i have of me playing The Beast. I shall have to rectify this soon. Thinking it might be time to film some live-looping stuff for you, especially now I’ve got my little Flipcam. I’ll get on the case and let you know when I have something good…
