Fringe in The Round are excited to present the third of their series of jazz, improvisation and contemporary music nights at The Bristol Fringe.
Xhosa Cole Trio
Xhosa Cole - Saxophone
Josh Vadiveloo - Bass
Jim Bashford - Drums
We're really excited to welcome our first Birmingham musicians to FITR. Since winning BBC Young Jazz Musician of the year in 2018, Xhosa Cole has developed into one of the most exciting young saxophonists in the country; a beautiful sound, a highly creative improviser and an already distinctive musical personality. We can't wait to hear him along with deep, empathetic and muscular rhythm section of Josh Vadiveloo and Jim Bashford. #welovebirminghamjazz

Ruth Hammond Solo
Ruth Hammond - Piano and Keyboards
If you ask Bristol musicians who they think the most talented players in the city are, Ruth usually comes near or at the top of the list. Equally at home as a vocalist, tenor saxophone or keys player, we're very lucky to be able to present her tonight in a rare solo piano and keyboard performance. Come and check out this lynch pin of the Bristol jazz scene showcase the astonishing range of her creativity and musicianship.
