My new years resolution is to see a minimum of 52 gigs this year (one a week) and to visit 1 new venue a month.
Sat 5th January - The Tremolites live at the Pizza Express
The Tremolites are a Ska/Soul outfit playing a mix of originals and quality covers. They were excellent. It is a nice little venue which I'd not been to before.
Weds 10th January - Stewart Curtis and K-Groove at Mill Hill Jazz Club
Stewart is our in house brass tutor at Mill Hill Music Complex. He is an amazing musician. K Groove are a mash up of Klezmer, Latin rythme's and Jazz. Fortunately his playing is infinitely better than his jokes.
Weds 17th Jan - Giles Robson & The Cinelli Brothers at The 100 Club
This was meant to be Kim Wilson of The Fabulous Thunderbirds. Sadly he had health issues, so blues Harp, Giles Robson stepped in. He was brilliant but what really blew me away was the support act, The Cinelli Brothers. They are awesome, the singer is a real star. Check them out
.Sun 20th January - Kenny Charles and Friends at The Highbury Inn.
A pretty stonkingly good night. Proper funk played well with some great musicians getting up and guesting. Kenny used to be a regular at The Mill Hill Jazz Club when Paul Amsterdam used to book bands.
