SUMMARY:Live Jazz: The Text Messengers Play The Messengers
DESCRIPTION:Last year’s Christmas Special was such fun we thought we’d do it again\, but with a few differences – alto sax player Luke Annesley who performed last year is off with the John Wilson Orchestra\, providing an opportunity to invite the remarkable trombonist Raph Clarkson to step in. \nFor much of the 1970s and 80s Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers featured a trumpet\, alto sax and tenor sax front-line\, but prior to that in the mid to late 1960s the band included either Freddie Hubbard or Lee Morgan on trumpet\, Wayne Shorter on tenor sax and Curtis Fuller on trombone\, so this year we’re attempting to recreate the sound of the band from this period. \nTrumpeter Andy Hague has been presenting occasional sextet gigs under the Text Messengers name for a number of years\, but the nod to Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers has more been due to the three horns front line rather than the repertoire. However\, Andy has now amassed sufficient arrangements actually performed by the Jazz Messengers that the band can now present a full programme of Jazz Messengers classics\, covering several eras of Art Blakey’s legendary group with compositions by Benny Golson\, Bobby Timmons\, Wayne Shorter and Bobby Watson. \nTenor saxophonist Dan Newberry has become a favourite of Bristol audiences in recent years with his hard blowing yet melodic style. He is now living here having completed his Masters at the Royal Welsh College in Cardiff. Dan has recently been playing with epic funk band Hungry Hungry Hippos alongside trumpeter Gary Alesbrook and guitarist Alex Hutchings. \nTrombonist Raph Clarkson moved to Bristol a few years ago\, and has had a great impact on the city’s jazz scene\, working frequently in projects alongside bassist Riaan Vosloo. An acclaimed composer and arranger\, Raph has been an integral part of the UK jazz scene for two decades\, gaining recognition for adventurous album releases such as Soldiering On\, Resolute\, and This Is How We Grow. Clarkson’s writing for the exciting 15-piece orchestra Dissolute Society draws on many genres\, from jazz to progressive rock to classical music\, but is ultimately defined by the artist’s strength of character and imagination. \nPianist Jim Blomfield is of course one of the mainstays of Bristol’s jazz scene. He has backed countless big name guest soloists and released two albums of his own music which blend jazz with electronica and contemporary music influences. He is also well known as one of the UK’s finest salsa pianists and appears in many Latin ensembles\, including recently touring with Cuban band Asere. \nBassist Riaan Vosloo recently gained a doctorate\, and is well known as a performer\, composer\, producer and educator. He has composed music for TV and films and has production credits on albums by Jamie Cullum and Gregory Porter. He is currently course leader for the MA in Popular Music Practice at BIMM Bristol\, and has previously taught at Birmingham Conservatoire. \nDrummer Ryan Thrupp recently graduated with a First from the Royal Welsh College jazz degree course and besides his jazz activities plays with funky festival favourites Cut Capers and appeared on live BBC TV from Glastonbury 2023 with afro-beat balafon player N’famady Kouyaté. \n

SUMMARY:TALK: The Psychology of Cats with Dr Jon Bowen
DESCRIPTION:Worshipped & domesticated by us for over 10\,000 years\, learn what modern science says about what goes on inside the mind of a cat! With Q+A.\n\n\n\nWhat do cats need to keep them happy? What are the rules cats expect us to follow when we interact with them? Why do cats ask for attention but then sometimes object when we stroke them? Where do cats go and what do they get up to when they leave the house? How have cats learned tricks to secretly manipulate us to get what they want? These are just some of the questions we’ll answer in this wide-ranging talk about the secret lives of cats. \nJon Bowen is a veterinary surgeon who has been working with dogs and cats with behaviour problems for more than 25 years. He runs the behavioural medicine referral service at the Royal Veterinary College\, where he also lectures on behaviour\, and he has published research papers and book chapters on a diverse range of subjects including normal and problematic cat and dog behaviour\, the social support people get from their pets\, and the welfare of pets. He is a regular speaker at international meetings.

SUMMARY:Jazz: QOW Trio
DESCRIPTION:Riley Stone-Lonergan – tenor sax\, Eddie Myer – double bass\, Spike Wells – drums \nA really exciting band for us to have at the club\, QOW TRIO are touring to promote their barnstorming third album on the prestigious Whirlwind Records\, with the fearless threesome roaming further than ever before into the uncharted hinterlands where the deep jazz tradition of the tenor trio\, laden with melody and swing\, ventures into the untamed regions of free improvisation. \nAt the heart of the band is the unmistakeable beat of drummer Spike Wells\, who this year celebrates his 80th birthday and the 65th year of his extraordinary career at the forefront of UK jazz\, providing the driving force behind everyone from the UK’s Tubby Hayes and Bobby Wellins to USA stars Stan Getz\, Dexter Gordon and Roland Kirk plus countless others. \nSpanning the generations and riding at at his side are rising star saxophonist Riley Stone-Lonergan\, whose intriguing compositions and boundless creative imagination as an improvisor continue to dazzle and delight\, and big-toned bassist Eddie Myer rounding up the posse. Their first album ‘QOW TRIO’ was selected as critic’s choice by Jazzwise Magazine for 2021. The follow-up ‘The Hold Up’ was described by BBC Music Magazine as ‘a stunning achievement” and awarded 4**** by The Times and The Scotsman. They’ve spent the intervening time touring across the UK and EU and developing their sound to a new creative peak. Now ‘The Rule Of Three’ shows that three really is the magic number with their most coherent\, wide-ranging and adventurous set of recordings yet. From Ayler to Strayhorn\, from be-bop to calypso\, from cowboy movie to free-jazz shootout\, there’s a surprise at every turn\, but always delivered with total sincerity and conviction and a driving desire to bring the audience with them every step of the way. \n“QOW TRIO are a simply phenomenal live act” – Kevin Whitlock\, Jazzwise \n“From fine to sublime\, the follow-up to this generation-spanning trio’s debut album is a stunning achievement… massively recommended.” – BBC Music Magazine \n“This sets the bar high for album of the year. It’ll take some beating.” – Matthew Wright\, Jazz Journal \n
