What's On Sunday 19th January in Bristol

Events on Sunday 19th January

“Another quirky offshoot from the sizzling musical cauldron that is Sheelanagig, this street-corner threesome of Aaron Catlow (violin), Kit Hawes (guitar) and Dorian Sutton (bass) pick'n'mix their way through a riotous grab bag of jazz and swing standards, Balkanised campfire dance tunes and the odd slice of Celtic tradition all spiced up with the kind of fun-loving virtuosity we've grown to expect from them.”

“Some laid back funky blues to start the year. Sunday afternoon gig at the excellent Golden Lion on Gloucester Road. Come and stuff Yorkshire puddings in your face while we fill your ears with mellow goodness.”

“Bristol favourite and saxophone collosus Greg Sterland joins the house trio for another burnin' session of Jazz at The Stag and Hounds. Greg is well reknowned across the Southwest and wales for his beautiful full tone, rich language and thoughtful use of space.”

“He joins The Alex Veitch Trio. Alex moved to Bristol from London around two years ago; he studied at the Guildhall School and has since secured residencies at Ronnie Scott’s and played at other venues including The Vortex, Cafe Oto, and Pizza Express Soho. We welcome his trio on the first Thursday of each month and are excited to present this collaboration on Sunday. Chris Jones and Paolo Adomo complete the quartet.”

“Captivating audiences with their contemporary folk, JUNO award-winners The East Pointers put human experience at the heart of their artistry. Taking cues from traditional Canadian Celtic musicality, the three-piece produce radio-ready, lyrically-driven tracks that are both powerfully poignant and beautifully melancholic. Armed with a fiddle, banjo and guitar, Tim Chaisson, his cousin Koady Chaisson and Jake Charron produce songs that stem from the sorrows of real-life and comment on the importance of human connection in the face of adversity. This “smart, stomping maritime folk” (The Guardian) sees The East Pointers bring a modern, effervescent twist to an already beloved genre.”
