06 March 2020 - Sam Leak :  “The Craft of Sound”

An absolutely delightful night of the highest quality jazz and intermingled illumination on how music "works" with the body. Sublime piano, Simon's so-solid, yet beautifully agile bass and Will's magnificently expressive drumming - I swear they were talking to me !! So all in all, a jazz night to long remember. Even before the night had ended musically, Folks were asking for a reprise, so definitely a Keeper on everyone's card.

07 February 2020 - Eirik Svela European Quartet

Eirik's previous visit to JATPjazz was an absolute blinder so it was little surprise to see the audience expand for his latest visit. Whether it was the replacement of the hitherto piano and bass with hammond organ which resulted in the audience response and rapture, one might only speculate, but what a stunning band this is. Eirik Svela : guitar, David Edge : tenor sax, Ross Stanley : hanmond org. org and Roger Johansen : d

03 January 2020 - FORJ Quartet

Do these Guys stir it up ? You bet! Fire-breathing dragons Joe & Josh rasping back and forth aloft propulsive rhythmic waves expelled by Nick and Jonathan. 4 Guys seemingly instinctively linked giving a high energy, yet slightly quirky jazz blast.
