Leeds Jazz Festival 2022

I’ve got a handful of gigs for this year’s inaugral Leeds Jazz Festival. Exciting times….

On 2 June Another Workout returns to Domino Club to pay tribue to the golden era of Blue Note Records. For this LJF special we’ll be performing Herbie Hancock’s Takin’ Off and Wayne Shorter’s Speak No Evil in full. It’s free entry, but reserve a table to secure a good spot.

I’ve assembled a Leeds super group to play Brudenell Social Club on 8 June. Live Evil will be exploring the exploring the 1970s electric works of Miles Davis, including material from A Tribute To Jack Johnson, On The Corner and Live Evil. More fuel for my obsession with Steve Grossman. Tickets available here.

The mighty Salemango Festival returns to Hyde Park Book Club as part of LJF, and I’ll be playing with Vipertime on 10th June and Ben Haskins Quartet on 11th. Other highlights include Mabgate Organ Trio, Spacey Basement Cult, Awen Ensemble, Ferg’s Imaginary Big Band, Shaku, Amy Clarke and Joshua Zero. Bring earplugs. Tix for this one available here.
