The lively and festive atmosphere of Mardi Gras is coming to The Bridge at 7.30pm on Friday 16th February 2024.
Chris Walker & The Pedigree Jazz Band will bring a taste of New Orleans through a collection of tuneful, traditional jazz numbers.
Chris Walker presented a weekly Jazz Programme broadcast by radio stations all over the world for over 30 years. He is also a very fine musician and was a founder member of the famous Real Ale and Thunder Band, who’s many TV appearances, included a “Songs of Praise” for the BBC.
The Pedigree Jazz Band is a traditional jazz group that has toured their ‘Salute to Trad Show‘ for the last 10 years.
For their 2024 tours they are broadening the selection of numbers to include a selection of Jazz, jive and swing.
A wide variety of sounds can be expected from Chris Walker (clarinet, alto and baritone saxophone) Andy Chislett (trumpet and Flugelhorn), John Noddings (banjo, guitar and vocals) Ken Ames (double bass and vocals) and Sy Gorelick (drums and percussion).
The new show is titled Mardi Gras Memories and continues the influence on the band of some of the great names that created the original music in the southern states of America.
Tickets: £14 from The Bridge Box Office.
