27 March - Sharp Little Bones with Tony Kofi (sax) - quartet with piano, bass and drums
We're talking invigorating modern post-bop. By this gig, there will have been a full three shows without any sax! Tony Kofi has won both BBC Jazz and Parliamentary Jazz awards and been nominated for a MOBO, and he and the band played a sold-out London Jazz Festival show last year, so it should be a good reintroduction to the instrument.
24 April - Sam Braysher Quartet feat. Annie Majin.
Annie Majin is a fresh new talent active on the jazz club circuit who recently made her debut on the West End stage. Together with celebrated alto saxophonist Sam Braysher, Annie will be presenting classic and lesser known items from the American songbook and jazz canon, including compositions by the likes of George Gershwin, Rodgers & Hammerstein and Harold Arlen, as well as songs from Sam's latest album That’s Him: The Music of Kurt Weill, which got airplay on Radio 3 and Jazz FM. Annie, Sam and the band recently presented their Kurt Weill project in London's Ladbroke Hall.
Line-up:
Annie Majin - vocals
Sam Braysher - alto saxophone
Kate Williams - piano
Tom Farmer - double bass
22 May Karen Sharp and Nigel Price
A quartet featuring two very established figures on the UK scene: Karen Sharp who plays both tenor and baritone saxophone, and of course our own Nigel Price on guitar. Karen has won a number of British jazz awards for best tenor saxophonist and has played with some of the greats, including Scott Hamilton, Humphrey Lyttelton Alan Barnes and Johnny and Jacqui Dankworth.
Line-up:
Karen Sharp - tenor (and possibly baritone) saxophone
Nigel Price - guitar
Julian Bury - double bass
Darren Beckett - drums
26 June ATLANTICUS
A transatlantic musical partnership bringing together Brighton-based British band-mates Terry Seabrook (organ), Jack Kendon (trumpet) and Milo Fell (drums) with American saxophonist Peter Fraize. Drawing on the traditions of the great Hammond organ groups, ATLANTICUS's groove-based sound is a modern fusion taking in blues, hard bop, modal jazz, boogaloo and Afro-cuban rhythms.
Line-up:
Terry Seabrook - organ
Peter Fraize - saxophone
Jack Kendon - trumpet
Milo Fell - drums
It's worth noting that Epsom Jazz Club has been launched as a not-for-profit community project, with the sole ambition of bringing Nationally and Internationally renowned Jazz Musicians to venues in the Borough of Epsom and Ewell, Surrey.
Other than our nominal promotional and venue/equipment hire expenses, all the ticket revenues go directly to the professional musicians.
It is never intended that Epsom Jazz Club be a private entity or profit-making. In fact, we are a subsidary of Epsom Music (Registered Charity No. 1197449).
Should ticket revenues exceed event expenses, we seek to either make improvements to our concert evenings or introduce some discounts for the young.
