Jazz Session @ Bocabar Glastonbury
Friday 6th May 7.30pm
The 'A List' of the Bristol jazz scene and some of the best jazz players in the UK.
Bristol
based trumpeter Andy Hague has been leading his quintet for over twenty years,
and it is one of the most popular bands in the area.
The
group has made many appearances at festivals such as Brecon, Swanage and
Glastonbury, and recorded four broadcasts for the BBC’s Jazz Notes programme
back in the 90s.
A glowing review in The Independent
on Sunday – “The collective impact of what amounts to a South-West supergroup
was close to overpowering.”
Teignmouth Jazz - "And
fabulous it was. Everyone was buzzing after the gig. "Really
tight and sensitive playing and interaction... Fantastic... Well up to the
national benchmark....The best gig I've been to recently...." were just
some of the comments flying around. And the Andy Hague Quintet CD, on
sale at the venue, Cross My Palm, stands repeated playing."
Stratford Jazz - "the
scene was set for an evening of quality jazz very much entrenched in the Blue
Note era – accessible, straight-ahead and swinging."
Hague’s
current quintet line-up is Andy Hague – trumpet/flugelhorn, long-term
associates Ben Waghorn – saxes and Jim Blomfield – piano, and younger generation
rising stars Riaan Vosloo – double bass and Mark Whitlam – drums, and on their
recent CD release Cross My Palm they are augmented on two tracks each by guests
saxophonist Jake McMurchie and vocalist Brigitte Beraha.
