Jazz in the House: Blue Town Trio @ Lauderdale House
Jun 9 @ 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm

The Blue Town Trio features emerging London-based talent Zoe Francis on vocals, multi-award winning Jim Mullen on guitar (Morrissey Mullen, Terry Callier, Mose Alison, Georgie Fame, Gene Harris), and the incomparable Ross Stanley on Hammond organ.
It’s a cracking repertoire of classic standards with fresh arrangements. Songs including “Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most”, “Too Late Now”, “Skylark”, “Who Can I Turn To”, “Midnight Sun”, “Nature Boy”, “Daydream”, “My One and Only Love”, “In a Sentimental Mood”, “Cinema Paradiso” and many more. Zoe’s love of a great lyric and beautiful voice set against the rich layers of sound from Ross’s Hammond and Jim’s melodic blues lines make this trio sound like a mini orchestra – not to be missed!

“Something a bit special is going on when this artist takes the stage…a classy poised singer” – London Jazz News on Zoe Francis

“Zoe communicates a love and understanding of the classic American Songbook with the lightest of touches, her choice of not-quite forgotten songs is canny too” – Dave Gelly (The Observer)

Anne McNeill Pulati Allegories and Metaphors @ Highgate Gallery
Sep 16 @ 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm

Anne McNeill Pulati – Allegories and Metaphors

16-29 September 2022

Anne McNeill Pulati uses the figure as a vehicle, metaphorically and pictorially, in her creative practice. These images are her personal reflections of human experience and spirituality.

Inspiration and research for the work includes ancient and modern belief systems, myths and legends, and cultural variations from around the world, particularly regarding the journey of the soul.  For many years she has been interested in metaphor and often incorporates motifs and symbols, ignoring compositional perspectives and using metaphysical landscapes.

Symbols which are commonly understood, such as figures, angels, flowers, rivers, and shadows appear frequently. Anne states that she is principally a colourist. The medium of paint offers her the freedom to tell a narrative through colours, textures and surfaces and allows an immediacy that encourages her imagination.

Art-making has enabled Anne to develop an understanding of the journey in life which she follows.  The essence of Quakerism sits in her life’s journey.  The making of a painting has come, for her, from a place which at that point is a “story beginning to unfold.”

Through the act of creativity, I enter a process which delivers something that usually surprises me and also is not consciously designed.  In this process, I receive insights and a fulfillment only by entering this activity.”

She believes that we all have gifts that are not our own, but are to share, and which may possibly benefit others.  The fact that we should share our gifts is the point, and it is usually fear of failure that stops us.  She says: “It doesn’t matter what you share, it’s the intention behind it that people will see.” In showing her work she hopes that those who see it, will be able to ponder on their own responses.

Jazz in the House: Cellicious @ Lauderdale House

Two cellist/jazz singers join forces to express their take on the world of standards, Latin, originals plus more.

Kate Shortt, cellist, singer songwriter, cabaret artists and comedienne is known for her avant garde improvisations and off the wall humour.

‘…Shortt’s solo took the honours. It was an unusual but impressive juxtaposition of overtones, atonality and snatches of delicate folk melodies…’ – Ian Mann, Jazz Reviewer

Rupert Gillett, multi instrumentalist, singer, composer and jazz bassist is also experienced in rock, blues and Eastern European styles.

‘…The stand out performance came from Rupert Gillett. Great cellist with comical side and songs that were instantly playing in your head…’ – Fiona Jarvis, Blue Badge Style
