About Me
My Jazz Story
I love jazz because It sets an ambiance of calm
and creates the space to relax, and enjoy and
listen to the artistry of the musicians and what
they are playing...
I was first exposed to jazz...I have always love
music that uses improvisation and distortion of
pitch and timbre. Jazz fits into that classification
I met [musician name]...Shabaka Hutchins at
the MOSTLY Jazz sou and funk festival in 2014
l met Nubaya Garcia after her gig 2018 @ Hare
& Hounds in Kings Heath Birmingham UK
The best show I ever attended was...Ezra
Collective gig @ Hare & Hounds 2018 superb!!!
The first jazz record I bought was...A kind of
Blue
My advice to new listeners...Start with A Kind
of Blue as an entry level, if you like what you
hear and want to explore more be aware that
within the genre there are sub- genre. You will
find the one that rocks your world. Enjoy the
journey.
Or whatever else you have in mind. I am really
enjoying what is happening in the Uk jazz
scene. All the artists/Bands are great. Why,
because it is diverse and collaborative.
