A
gig
on Thursday 12th September. The event starts at 20:30.
Described by the late Humphrey Lyttelton as “formidable,” Simon Spillett is a major voice on the straight-ahead British jazz scene. A real virtuoso, he is steeped in the music of Tubby Hayes, but is very much his own man. He has won several awards for his music, including the tenor saxophone category of the British Jazz Awards (2011), Jazz Journal magazine’s Critic’s Choice CD of the Year (2009), Rising Star in the BBC Jazz Awards (2007) and most recently for Services to British Jazz in the 2016 British Jazz Awards.
Tickets £10 or £5 for students. At the door or from www.jazzatfutureinn.co.uk
