Jazz Notes made its debut on Sun 15 April 2012 at the Casey Food, Wine & Jazz Festival in the grounds of the Old Cheese Factory, Berwick.

Fronted by Pippa Wilson, the line-up comprised Jon Magill (saxophone), Kevin Blazé (guitar), Kelvin Legg (vibes and saxophone), Paul Bonnington (bass) and Adam Donaldson (drums).

The day commenced with an instrumental set and was followed by two vocal sets.

It was the first time that music had been included in the festival and it proved very popular. The gardens provided good shade for the audience but not for the band!
