The month we're thrilled to welcome an absolute legend of the International Jazz scene, the multi-award winning saxophonist Alan Barnes, as our guest at the Eykyn Jazz & Blues. Alan is best known for his work on clarinet, alto and baritone sax, where he combines a formidable virtuosity with a musical expression and collaborative spirit that have few peers. His range and brilliance have made him a 'first call' for studio and live work since his precocious arrival on the scene more than forty years ago.
His recorded catalogue is immense. He has made over thirty albums as leader and co-leader alone, and the list of his session and side-man work includes Bjork, Bryan Ferry, Michel LeGrande, Clare Teale, Westlife, Jools Holland and Jamie Cullum. He has toured and played residencies with such diverse and demanding figures as Ruby Braff, Freddie Hubbard, Scott Hamilton, Warren Vache, Ken Peplowski, Harry Allen and Conte Candoli.
As usual there will be a warm welcoming atmosphere, a raffle, guest spots between the sets, food and most importantly some great live music. Early start. See you there!
