Day: 31 May 2022

Hello June Jazzers!

We have an absolute bumper bundle of gigs for you this month!

We’re not expecting to see HM The Queen at any of our Jubilee gigs, but you never know, and we wouldn’t turn her away…

After the Jubilee, the big news is Neal’s mini-Tour of his “Not” King Cole show to Germany 🇩🇪!

And then Neal’s 7-piece Band play the Eastbourne Tennis Finals for the 14th Year! (Serving up music for the Pimms-on-the-lawn immediately before the matches)

We round off the month with Andy Panayi’s Student Big Band at Eastbourne, closely followed by the return of violin ace Mike Piggott.

Get your Diaries out NOW!

SPECIAL NOTICE: NIGEL PRICE’S CAMPAIGN TO SAVE GRASSROOTS JAZZ VENUES
Our dear friend Nigel Price (gtr) is leading the charge for funding for grassroots jazz clubs in the UK, much like our @splashpointjazz clubs.
PLEASE publicise this and support the campaign as generously as you are able!  Many thanks ❤️
To quote Nigel:

“Grassroots jazz venues didn’t qualify for any help from the Culture Recovery Fund.
£1.57 Billion was shoved out the door too quickly, without considering everyone who needed help.
We are already losing some of them as a direct result of this.
I’m trying to raise a million pounds to help every single club in the UK.
This represents (ball park) roughly 5 grand between roughly 200 clubs.
That kind of help would give our little world some kind of future. Can YOU help?
If you can’t donate then please share.”
