We’re kicking off our three-day festival-within-a-festival down at The
Amersham TONIGHT with a splendid double-bill! Featuring music from SECollective
maestros Sam Bullard and Arthur Lea, with a host of other local collaborators,
it promises to be a wonderful evening of music inspired by travels both distant
and more close to home…
Doors open at 8.30 with music from 9pm, and don’t forget we’re running a
3-day Festival Special: all 3 gigs this week for just £10! We look forward to
seeing you down in New Cross this evening!
Sam Bullard's People & Places
Sam Bullard - Saxophones/Bass Clarinet
Dave Manington - Bass
John Blease - Drums
Mick Foster - Saxophones/Clarinet/Flute
George Hogg - Trumpet/Flugelhorn
Tom White - Trombone
Sam Bullard’s flexible ensemble morphs from classical quartet to
improvising jazz trio and sextet with consummate ease. Chorales contrast with
free improvisations, Latin grooves contrast with driving swing and brooding
ballads.
Arthur Lea's Wandering Stories
Arthur Lea - Piano/Vocals
Alam Nathoo - Saxophone
Henrik Jensen - Bass
John Blease - Drums
Arthur Lea has been hammering honky tonks since his hands could first reach the keys. He sings a retro brand of rhythm n blues, irregular riffs, and southern soul. Think Professor Longhair with Blue Note oil - songs that travel from New Orleans to Nashville to New York to New Cross Gate.
