MASTER SAXOPHONIST AT THE BEAVERBlistering, award-winning saxophonist Simon Spillett will perform a gig at North Devon Jazz Club at The Beaver, Appledore on 16 November.
Dubbed ‘extraordinarily talented’ by Jazzwise Magazine, Spillett displays (in the words of Jazz UK magazine) an ‘instrumental facility and creative fecundity’ in his playing, while Observer jazz critic Dave Gelly wrote ‘ Those of us who have caught him …have been left blinking in disbelief. It’s not only his mastery of the tenor saxophone …but the ‘absolute conviction of his playing that is so impressive.’
Performing in a post-bop style very much influenced by his hero, the late, great UK saxophonist Tubby Hayes, Simon Spillett will be joined for the gig by the Ronnie Jones Trio.
The gig starts at 8.30 p.m. and entry will be free although a collection will be taken for the band during the evening. For a meal booking phone The Beaver on 01237 474822.
