Dave Ital's Birthday Gig
“Cool guitar-led funk, jazz and soul band featuring session man Dave Ital”
Time Out
The Club is fast becoming the place for musicians to celebrate their birthdays and tonight we will be hosting the birthday celebration of one of our favourite Groove guitarists, Dave Ital. A regular here at the Club with artists such as Imaani, Derek Nash and Michelle John, Dave’s reputation as a studio and gigging musician is of the highest calibre. His powerful yet sophisticated Groove playing has been heard with the likes of Chaka Khan, Tom Jones, Nile Rodgers, Incognito, Beyoncé, Level 42, Mica Paris, Take That, Lulu and Bobby Womack and he is first call guitarist for a host of other high profile artists. Tonight Dave will be celebrating his birthday in the company of some equally exalted groove musicians, including Lex Cameron-keyboard/vocals, Shanti Jayasinha-trumpet, Aaron Liddard-sax, Yolanda Charles-bass, Westley Joseph-drums and Special Guest: Mary Pearce (Lionel Ritchie, Courtney Pine, Roy Ayres)-vocals. And if all that wasn’t enough you can expect plenty of illustrious guests to drop by to pay their respects to this popular musician and maybe play a song or two as well. Promises to be quite a night.
