Gigs In Bristol Today

Events on Tuesday 3rd November

“Bristol Transformed is run by dozens of local people. Without new people every year, we wouldn't be able to maintain the same standard of events that you enjoy. If you'd be interested in joining us, sign up as a BT volunteer today! https://cloud.seatable.io/dtable/forms/d3a761c9-4c79-4b10-b38e-50bbad501bcc/”
From: Resisting Rearmament: the strategic priority for the British left?

“Formed by keyboardist Daniel Biro, sonic artist and groove architect Adrian Newton, and guitarist Rob Palmer, the group grew out of a long-running collaboration between Biro and Palmer, whose 2004 album The Long Journey Home was released on Sargasso Records. Newton’s distinctive approach to live electronics and rhythmic texture helped shape the project into the fully realised trio it is today.”

“Nigel Price is one of the most highly regarded and in demand guitarists on the UK jazz scene today. He spent three years with UK funk legends - the James Taylor Quartet, was voted No.1 in the 2016 British Jazz Awards for “best guitarist” and is also a regular performer at Ronnie Scott’s, where he’s played around 600 times.”
From: Nigel Price & Lorne Lofsky Quartet

““Treasure is holding a much needed space in today's society. Building a healthy and safe relationship with intimacy, especially between strangers, turned out to be an unexpected form of healing. Makes me think of a future where everyone can holds hands, united - and it's only through safe places like this that that future can become one step closer to reality.” - Danny”
