SUMMARY:The Jac; Alert Level 3 Event Cancelled. They will be back at a later date for sure !
DESCRIPTION:The Jac is back! A year on from the COVID-enforced online release of their third studio album ‘A Gathering’\, the high-octane modern jazz octet is reforming in 2021 to tour Aotearoa once again\, with a follow up album: ‘Walking Spirits’! \nFeaturing material from The Jac’s 2017 collaboration with Korean quartet Black String\, plus a swathe of brand new original compositions\, these albums represent a milestone in their sound. Recorded at Roundhead Studios in Auckland\, they are a beautifully produced capture of a band at the height of its powers\, showcasing their intricate and immersive compositions\, tight ensemble playing and assertive\, individual improvising voices. \n‘Tūī’\, one of the titles from ‘A Gathering’\, was awarded the APRA NZ Best Jazz Composition award in 2020. The Jac has performed the music for no less than 5 other winners and nominees of the same award since 2014. They have headlined the Wellington Jazz Festival and featured in the Jarasum International Jazz Festival (KOR)\, Bukchon Music Festival (KOR)\, National Jazz and Blues Festival (NZ) and performed throughout Aotearoa\, Australia and South Korea. \nWellington jazz stalwarts Jake Baxendale\, Chris Buckland (saxophones)\, Callum Allardice (guitar)\, Nick Tipping (bass) and Shaun Anderson (drums) are joined by the NZSO’s Matthew Allison (trombone) plus guests Daniel Hayles (piano) and Ben Hunt (trumpet) for this very special concert. \nTickets $25 online\,\n $15/$30 on the door (concession/general admission)

SUMMARY:Mama's Got the Blues
DESCRIPTION:Izzy Miller Bell & Susan Leigh Grant \nUrban folk & country blues\, a little bit of jazz and a whole lot of Celtic soul that is what these two vintage blues mamas bring to the table\, delivering a slick program of original composition\, eloquent Dylan arrangements and classic jazz and blues by the likes of Billie Holiday\, Fats Waller Josh White\, Johnny Cash and more. \nIzzy Miller Bell aka Ma Bell heralded to be one of NZ’s most musical Scottish imports (NZMM July 2003) arrived on our shores in the late eighties and has gone on to establish a solid respected reputation as a folk blues jazz singer songwriter\, performance artist and producer\,  the face behind  Miller Bell Productions & The Pop-Up Concert Series.  \nSusan Leigh Grant is the other half of this impressive musical partnership. She is a two-time Gore Golden Guitar award winner who plays a mean slide guitar while at the same time bringing an innovative sensitive approach to the wooden body finger-style making her the perfect accompaniment to the gutsy chocolate hazelnut voice of Ma Bell.\n This is a special musical partnership not to be missed.  \nReserve your ticket
