SUMMARY:Breen & Boizi
DESCRIPTION:Doors 6:45 PM\, Music 7:15 PM – 1 set of music\n  \nLine-up:\nLauren Breen – Alto saxophone\nChrist-Stéphane Boizi – Trombone\nTom Sheen – Double bass\nOscar Brady – Piano\nMiranda Radford – Drum kit \n  \nAbout:\nLauren Breen and Christ-Stéphane Boizi are both composers and improvisers in their own right\, and now this dynamic duo have joined forces to lead a new and up-coming band. They have performed together for years in Christ-Stéphane’s sextet\, however\, this new project showcases both Breen and Boizi’s compositions\, alongside a killing young rhythm section. In previous projects they have played at venues such as Pizza Express Soho\, the Elgar Room (the Royal Albert Hall) and the Jazz Cafe\, and their years of friendship and sharing the stage\, really comes through in their frontline playing. Breen’s powerful and bright tone blends beautifully with Boizi’s warm\, soulful sound\, creating an iconic and exciting hardbop frontline. They both met at Tomorrow’s Warriors and have continued studying together at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance\, where they are in their final year. \nLauren Breen is an exciting up-coming alto saxophonist who draws inspiration from a lineage of powerful and dynamic alto players\, including Cannonball Adderley\, Jackie McLean\, and Vincent Herring. These figures\, as well as learning from Tony Kofi\, Rachel Cohen and Jean Toussaint\, have played a significant role in her growth as both an improviser and a composer\, enabling her to project a rich sound over her swinging contemporary compositions\, which have a hard-bop style. She is already a part of London’s vibrant Jazz scene\, and has performed at Brick Lane Jazz Festival\, Pizza Express Live Soho and the Jazz Cafe\, to name a few.\nAn exciting new voice on the London Jazz scene\, Christ-Stéphane Boizi’s music is at once a vibrant celebration of Jazz’s great past\, very much in the present and looking to the future. Notable for his inquisitive studious approach\, relaxed poise and warm leadership\, Boizi is a student of melody\, harmony\, rhythm and soul\, striving to hone in on what makes the work of greats from across the rich history of jazz so powerful\, and to apply these learnings in his own music. He has learnt from the great Byron Wallen\, Trevor Mires and Winston Rollins. \n\n

SUMMARY:Four Card Molly
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7:45 PM\, Music 8:30 PM – 2 sets of music\n  \nLine-up:\nWill Cleasby – Drums\nWill Barry – Piano\nRiley Stone Lonergan – Tenor Saxophone\nWill Sach – Double bass \n  \nAbout:\nThe exciting and versatile drummer Will Cleasby’s subtle but powerful playing has been heard with a wide variety of high profile artists\, including work alongside the likes of acclaimed US trumpeter Wynton Marsalis\, Grammy award winner Kurt Elling and the multi-Award-winning Jamie Cullum on an impressive and growing CV. Tonight Will brings to the Club his latest project\, a tribute to the great US drummer Elvin Jones (the band name is based on an Elvin tune “3 Card Molly”). Featuring Riley Stone-Lonergan-sax\, Will Barry-piano & Will Sach-bass Will describes the programme as showcasing “some lesser-known tunes from Elvin’s solo albums from the 60s-80s\, highlighting his writing and that of the members of those groups”. Terrific music from some seriously good players! \n\n
