Musicians performing tonight include John Crawford, Matt Wates, Rob Statham, Steve Taylor, Mark Rose and Emiliano Caroselli as well as vocalists Marta Capponi, Jojo Desmond and Shireen Francis plus Special Guests. This is a special evening to celebrate a special musician.
“Geoff was a pivotal and seemingly ubiquitous player on the British jazz scene…he will be sorely missed by fans and fellow musicians alike who regarded him with great affection both for his easygoing affability and his spectacular virtuosity” Jazz Journal
