Kevin Grenfell’s Hot Banana Band Fundraiser for Lancaster Boys & Girls Club: 7.30pm Wed 26th November

November 20, 2014 By Peter Butler Leave a Comment

On Wednesday 26th November Kevin Grenfell will be performing with his Hot Banana Band from 7.30 to 10.30pm at the Jubilee WM Club, Torrisholme. We are sure of some good Swing and Rhythm & Blues plus a good smattering of Kevin’s unique brand of humour.

Tickets are £8.00 in advance (£9 on the door)

It seems unbelievable that it was twelve months ago that I started ‘JAZZ4FUNDS’ to help Lancaster Boys and Girls Club, and even more unbelievable that the total has gone over £1,600!!! All while we have been seeing some really good performances at reasonable cost, in a really good comfortable venue and with drinks over 50% cheaper than pub prices!

Ring me asap 01524 855770 or email: [email protected]

DIARY NOTE: Wednesday 28th January 2015 a superb young band JAKE LEG JUG BAND will strut their stuff to give us their take on authentic music of the 20’s and 30’s.

ALWAYS REMEMBER ‘GOOD MUSIC MAKES GOOD FRIENDS’

Thanks for supporting me.

Norman Gibson
(Supporter of Lancaster Boys & Girls Club)

HELP US KEEP JAZZ LIVE AND ALIVE!

Popular belief is that Jazz has had its day. Not so! There are plenty of great bands on the jazz circuits - playing at Concerts, Clubs, Festivals. People say the musicians and fans are past their sell by dates and don’t attract younger audiences. Again, not so! There is a Jazz Revival! Numerous younger bands with growing numbers of enthusiastic young fans are making their mark.

Jazz&Jazz is dedicated to keeping jazz LIVE AND ALIVE. We value exchanges of views on all things jazz. You can make your comments by using the “Speak Your Mind” option below each post.

But as Jazz&Jazz coverage increases incrementally in quality as well as quantity so do costs - travel, photography, videos, subscriptions, booking and ticket prices.

CONTRIBUTIONS to help cover costs would therefore be greatly appreciated. Jazz&Jazz also features JAZZ ART, sales of which help finance expenses.

“Jazz & Jazz” is an invaluable platform for news about young bands and musicians. It’s a great way for organisers like me to know what is going on!

“Dear Peter, You have embarked on a lonely road. There have been few people painting New Orleans musicians over the years. There was one guy named Frank Caunce … in the 1965 - 72 period who was very good but not as organised as you. So keep doing what you are doing.”
Barry Martyn, New Orleans
