Al Morrison + MG4
Support: Tig Oliver Band
We welcome Al Morrison. Al is the house guitarist for Scarborough Jazz Festival and a man of many musical contexts, including his 10-piece band, Al Morrison’s Blues Experience, the New York Brass Band, and the annual course for young musicians at his Rockgod Academy Music Centre.
As a soloist Al is known for his relaxed, blues-inflected style, which this evening sits astride the 4-piece house band.
Expect some Coltrane tunes like Naima and Giant Steps, some Ellington, like Take the A train and In a Sentimental Mood, plus a few standards and some blues.
In the support slot is the Tig Oliver Band, a young trio promising some funky tunes, with influences from Stevie Wonder, Gordon Oliver, and other such jazzy folk. Tiggy Oliver (piano), Joe Miller (drums) and Jacob Robinson (saxophone).
Doors 7.45. Music 8.00. Minimum donation £5. Students and under 18s half price
