Suzanne Mellard and the New Standards Trio

Suzanne-Mellard

Suzanne Mellard
  must be the best kept secret on the British jazz scene. Completely self taught she has a unique voice among her contemporaries and has developed from many influences starting with Sarah Vaughan and Betty Carter through to Mark Murphy, Eddie Jefferson and Kurt Elling. She has performed with many well respected names in the genre including, Dave O’Higgins, Bill Watrous, Dave Newton, Brian Dee and Darius Brubeck.

One highlight of her career was to be invited to perform with Dame Cleo Laine’s band featuring Alan Ganley, John Horler, Mark Nightingale, Malcolm Creese and the legendary Sir John Dankworth at The Stables, Wavendon.

Suzanne’s Dynamic voice encompasses many varied styles and shows her wide range of influences, from Soul and Blues through to Contemporary Jazz and Fusion.

Featuring Sammy’s Autumn 2016 UK Tour

 

This year for the first time in some years I missed out on Sammy Rimington’s UK Autumn Tour. But Jazz&Jazz photographer Laurence Cumming caught up with Sammy at The Winning Post, Whitton, on 29th September, and sent me a selection of great shots. Thanks go to Laurence and also to Tony and Kay Leppard for permitting Laurence to take the photos. Tony and Kay, how I miss your Thursday lunchtime gigs at The 100 Club!

Want to spice up an early Xmas shopping trip to the Capital with a midday jazz gig? Then don’t miss out on this rare visit to London by Tad Newton’s Jazzfriends.

Conscia Jazz, Bedford, Presents “Little Lions” at Jazz in The Park, Thursday, 29th September

 

Little-Lions

This month we are bringing our 2016 JAZZ AT THE PARK series to a close with a very exciting and individual event. LITTLE LIONS are coming to Bedford on the 29th September. They are a unique band featuring pianist Matt Robinson, organist/keyboardist Joe Webb and drummer/percussionist Corrie Dick.

As always there will be a Q & A session with the artists during the second set.

Introducing The Little Lions
“This vibrant and effortlessly tasteful partnership comprises three young luminaries: pianist Matt Robinson, organist/keyboardist Joe Webb, and drummer/percussionist Corrie Dick. The band was brought together by their shared passion and talent for emotionally honest music. Taking insight from the glorious film scores of Thomas Newman, the melodic finesse of Joni Mitchell and the finesse and groove of Larry Goldings, Little Lions is quickly forging it’s own unique sound, captivating audiences of all inclinations. Since their inaugural performance in 2014, Little Lions’ live show has been characterised by engaging good humour and warm euphoric timbres. They meld together the realms of singer-songwriter, jazz, ambience and emotive soundtracks in a brand new and utterly individual way.”

Tom-SysonThe event starts at 8pm with doors open from 7.40pm. Tickets are on sale at conscia.org, and food is available to pre order from the cafe for the evening. Menu Options. (Tickets to the event do not include food which is purchased separately). We look forward to seeing you there!!

Many thanks,

Tom Syson
