What a wonderful night of music, laughter, fun & friendship was had!
The vibe was palpable: the magnificent swing dancers strutted their fun and well-rehearsed moves, so many people having a super time. Pippa was on fire and the crowd cheered for more! Jazz Notes rose to the challenge and backed Pippa perfectly.
We welcomed Marek Podstawek on drums for his first time at the VJC and he was fantastic! Right in the pocket, as they say. With Malcolm Hornby on keys, Kevin Blazé on guitar/banjo! and Leon Heale on that magnificent double bass that just speaks “Jazz”. Ann Craig kept the crowd entertained with her fantastic flute and on-stage shenanigans .
Our thanks to the VJC and especially to Liz, Ian & Warren for a great night. Looking forward to being back again to support live jazz at the VJC.
