The Tina May Quintet
Tina May (voice), Karen Sharp (saxes), Robin Aspland (piano), Arnie Somogyi (d. bass) & Winston Clifford (drums)
This very swinging quintet is led by the incredibly versatile and talented Tina May who was breathtakingly exciting on the Swanage Festival main stage last year. Tonight her jazz soul is the guiding force and one glance at her line up tells you that this will be a very special evening. It’s the first appearance at Lauderdale by British Jazz Award winner Karen Sharp who first worked with Tina when they were both with the Humphrey Lyttelton Band. Since then they have collaborated and recorded together extensively.
Expect some straight ahead jazz and ….always some forgotten gems alongside standards – but swung and sung in Tina’s inimitable style.
Our programmer Brian Blain compares her appearance at Swanage to Anita O’Day’s sensational contribution to that classic 1960 documentary Jazz On a Summer’s Day and tell us that ‘we could not start our Spring season in any better way’.
‘that great rarity…a singer who enhances a song.’ Dave Gelly, the Observer.

Winner of the Best Drummer at the 2017 British Jazz Award Clark Tracey has carved out a serious career for 40 years over and above being the son of his illustrious father Stan Tracey with whom he used to play; and whose legacy he keeps alive.
He has worked with many of the great American players, from Scott Hamilton and Johnny Griffin to Pharoah Sanders, as well as almost every leading British musician of the last thirty years.
Furthermore he has taken on the role of ‘mature mentor’ to many of the very many brilliant young players who seem to emerge on the jazz scene on a monthly basis. This is just such an exciting young group and they guarantee to deliver the hard bop message for which its leader is so revered

Nat Steele Quartet ‘tribute to MJQ’

Nat Steele (vibes), Daniel Di Lecce (d bass), Gabriel Latchin (piano) & Steve Brown (drums)
This swinging take on the music of the Modern Jazz Quartet (MJQ) of the 1950’s, celebrates his 5 star debut album of the same name. Jazz Choice of the Month in the December BBC Music Magazine, it has received rave reviews since its sell-out launch at Ronnie Scott’s.
‘Portrait of the MJQ’ is a special project for vibraphone player Nat Steele’s with its unique blend of subtlety and deep swing as it pays tribute to the fiery, boppish stylings of vibes pioneer Milt Jackson. Combined with this brilliant rhythm section the Quartet is guaranteed to do justice to its inspiration’s timeless music.
The MJQ were one of the most successful and influential jazz groups of the 20th century. They took jazz out of the club and into the concert hall increasing its popularity and reaching new audiences. Early pioneers of ‘third stream’ fusion, they combined classical compositional techniques with jazz improvisation.
‘Nat Steele is one of the best vibes players this country has ever produced.’
Clark Tracey
‘A refreshing treat for the ears’ 5 stars

Art Themen (saxes), Steve Fishwick (trumpet), Gareth Williams (piano), Arnie Somogyi (d bass) & Winston Clifford (drums)
According to The Observer’s Dave Gelly ‘Art Themen is one of the tiny handful of undeniably perfect musicians‘.
He is in constant demand all over the country as a solo attraction and over the years has appeared nationally and internationally with Stan Tracey’s various bands, Alexis Korner in the early days of R’nB and, later, with Cream’s Jack Bruce. A living true legend!
Art’ New Directions was launched a few years ago at Lauderdale and is a band of A List players, with a strict ‘no deps’ rule, which is close to his heart. Designed by him to look afresh at some of the lesser known gems from jazz’s golden age written by musicians such as Thelonious Monk, Dexter Gordon, Cedar Walton and many more, it is doubtful that you will hear a better band in any idiom than this.

7000 Rubber Ducks. 7 Seas. 1 Big Adventure.
Faceplant Theatre’s exciting production One Duck Down sees unlikely but lovable hero Billy preparing to venture to the ends of the earth to win the affections of his sweetheart. Little did he know he’d be set the tremendous task of finding the elusive nautical treasure… Rubber Ducks?!
Soon Billy is swept up on an ocean clear-up adventure spanning from the quaint shores of Pebbleton Village to the icy North Pole, from an exotic tropical beach to a floating island made entirely of rubbish. One Duck Down is inspired by the true tale of the 7,000 Rubber Ducks that were cast adrift in a mighty storm. Jam packed with music, clowning and puppetry, this show teaches all ages the importance of looking after our oceans. The set and props are recycled from the lost and found of rubbish both on land and at sea, all to create one eco-friendly family frolic.
One Duck Down is suitable for children aged 2/3+.

Remembering Blossom Dearie
Zoe Francis (voice), Jim Mullen (guitar), Barry Green (piano) & Mick Hutton (d bass)
Zoe Francis is “a singer to listen out for. She communicates a love and understanding of classic American song with the lightest of touches. A classy set.” – The Guardian.
Tonight she weaves new magic and wit into the repertoire of Blossom Dearie, the legendary 1950’s and 60’s American pianist/singer who was a well-loved regular at Ronnie Scott’s, where Zoe also sold out earlier this year. Zoe’s harmonic knowledge, immaculate articulation, and ‘grip’ on time – an absolute essential for jazz musicians – wins her the admiration of her three brilliant colleagues, who are all heavyweight names on the British jazz scene.

Remembering Blossom Dearie
Zoe Francis (voice), Jim Mullen (guitar), Barry Green (piano) & Mick Hutton (d bass)
Zoe Francis is a young generation singer who has a knack of choosing the more unusual classic songs into which she can weave new magic. ‘a singer to listen out for. She communicates a love and understanding of classic American song with the lightest of touches. A classy set.’ The Guardian
Choosing to remember Blossom Dearie, the legendary American pianist/singer who spent a lot of time in the fifties and sixties in London and Paris, is a masterstroke, for she too had an incredible ear for the less well trodden. A well-loved regular at Ronnie Scott’s Blossom enjoyed the respect of great musicians such as bassist Jeff Clyne and drummer Johnny Butts.
Zoe makes no attempt to copy Blossom’s unique vocal sound. Her harmonic knowledge, immaculate articulation, and ‘grip’ on time – an absolute essential for jazz musicians – wins her the admiration of her three brilliant colleagues.
Her loving interpretation of rare gems is steeped in musicality and, frequently, wit. A special singer indeed.
She will be singing some of Blossom’s most popular songs including work by Cy Coleman, the prolific writing duo Comden and Green and famously Dave Frishbergs I’m Hip, Peel Me A Grape and My Attorney Bernie. This gig sold out at Ronnie Scott’s in January – don’t miss this chance to catch it in Highgate!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1N-8TQClg0
“There is a quality in Zoe Francis’s work that suggests something of the classic singers of the past, yet there is no obvious attempt to be anyone but herself, with an appealing freshness as well as technical command that make her shows well worth seeking out. . . .”, London Jazz News
‘With his unique, mellow guitar sound and his ability to spin a seemingly effortless stream of melody, Jim Mullen never fails to keep your ears fully occupied.’ The Guardian

David Gordon (piano), Paul Cavaciuti (drums) and Oli Hayhurst (d. bass)
Piano virtuoso David Gordon’s ‘Alexander Scriabin’s Ragtime Band’ is a celebration of the great Russian composer’s music seen through a kaleidoscope of jazz, Latin, and other influences. The CD was chosen as Mojo’s Jazz CD of 2016: ‘David Gordon is a musician of dazzling range. Here he presents a playful, ingenious, irreverent and deeply respectful reimagining of the eccentric Russian composer’s oeuvre in which Scriabin’s music is filtered through Irving Berlin, foo-de-oh-do vocals, impressionistic jazz, ambient electro, samba, and whatever else occurs to the extravagantly resourceful pianist.’ – Mojo
The David Gordin Trio will perform at Lauderdale House on 24 May. The concert begins at 8.30pm, with doors opening at 8pm and the cafe open late into the evening selling drinks and snacks!

Piano virtuoso David Gordon’s ‘Alexander Scriabin’s Ragtime Band’ is a celebration of the great Russian composer’s music seen through a kaleidoscope of jazz, Latin, and other influences. The title comes from his Trio’s 2015 album which coincided with the hundredth anniversary of Scriabin’s death and, more or less, the birth of jazz in New Orleans.
It was chosen as Mojo’s Jazz CD of 2016: ‘David Gordon is a musician of dazzling range. Here he presents a playful, ingenious, irreverent and deeply respectful reimagining of the eccentric Russian composer’s oeuvre in which Scriabin’s music is filtered through Irving Berlin, foo-de-oh-do vocals, impressionistic jazz, ambient electro, samba, and whatever else occurs to the extravagantly resourceful pianist.’ Mojo
Our programmer Brina Blain says,’The bottom line is that this is as tight and hard swinging a trio as we heard anywhere last year.’
On very rare occasions when listening to the first few bars of the opening track of an album you know that what you are about to hear will be immense. This was such an occasion…. truly outstanding album.’ jazzviews.net
