What a fantastic evening last friday, we so enjoyed the music.
It was lovely seeing everyone up dancing, just like the old dance halls!
We thought the band was just great, brilliant musicians amazing talent.
A truly wonderful evening and we're looking forward to the Bristol Bobcats next month.
John promotes jazz across the South West with great success. The shows he organises are still talked about years after they have happened.
Charlie is a jazz artist in his own right. He works across Europe in a wide variety of musical styles.
