SUMMARY:Jazz: John Donegan Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Pianist John Donegan has visited annually to promote his series of sextet albums\, but this year has returned to quartet format for his latest CD Interfuse\, recorded in Dublin\, May 2025. The recording features the cream of Ireland’s jazz scene including former Van Morrison saxophonist Richie Buckley\, but as on previous occasions tonight we present John’s music with a specially formed Bristol version. \nFor the first time John will be joined by Dan Newberry on sax duties – Dan is a firebrand player whose musical maturity belies his relative youth and his playing never fails to impress. The rock solid rhythm team of Chris Jones and Ryan Thrupp have played for John’s previous sextet visits. \nOriginally from Cork in Ireland\, John Donegan lived in Bristol during the 90s and was a mainstay of the jazz scene here before work took him to London. Now retired from his day job\, over the past few years John has been able to dedicate his time exclusively to music and has released several recordings demonstrating his compositional skills including his three sextet albums Shadows Linger [2022]\, Light Streams [2023] and We Will Meet Again\, Sometime [2024]. \nOnce again John has gained a hard to achieve four star review in Jazzwise Magazine “In short\, superb music; and brilliant production” alongside other excellent reviews you will find in Jazz Journal\, UK Jazz News and All About Jazz.

SUMMARY:Comedy: Stand Up For The Weekend with Michael Shafar
DESCRIPTION:Stand Up For The Weekend with Michael Shafar featuring Milo Edwards & Tom Toal\n\nHeadliner: MICHAEL SHAFAR\nOriginally from Melbourne\, Michael Schafar is now based in London where he has quickly become one of the most exciting new acts on the UK comedy circuit. He regularly performs at the country’s biggest clubs where he gets to mock British people for their awful history and terrible food to their faces.​​\n\nIf you have lived in Australia\, or even just visited there\, you might already know Michael from his appearances on Network 10’s The Project and Studio 10\, ABC’s Comedy Bites and triple j’s Good Az Friday. Of course\, traditional media is dead\, so it’s more likely that you might be one of his 100\,000+ followers on social media or the 100+ million people who have seen his videos online. You may have also watched his debut special A(LIVE) on Amazon Prime or his most recent special Alright\, Next Joke on YouTube.​\n“Shafar circumnavigates the line between  edgy and offensive with beautiful finesse” The Age (Melbourne)
