SUMMARY:Jazz: Ross Hicks Trio
DESCRIPTION:Ross Hicks is a young Cardiff based pianist who made a great impression on a short tour with saxophonist Simon Spillett in 2023 and played his debut trio gig at the Be-Bop Club in 2024. \n“Hicks was a revelation\, ideas emerged and developed and injected drama even as the pieces unfolded at near terminal velocity” – Mike Collins [jazzyblogman]. \nPresenting music from his first album ‘Three Elms’\, Ross and his talented co-conspirators will play a mix of original compositions and some other contemporary tunes. The album is a series of original compositions and is the result of a wide array of influences with an original spin – “an intelligent and intriguing piece of writing” – The Jazz Mann. \nRoss is a graduate of the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama now working as  a full time freelance musician\, and has formed his trio featuring two of the Be-Bop Club’s favourite players. \nNick Kacal is a bassist originally from Trinidad\, but has roots in London and a presence on the Manchester but now residing in South Wales. After studying with Tony Hougham\, the principle bass of the Covent Garden Opera\, he moved to London and has played as a sideman on the scene playing predominantly jazz and acoustic folk\, occasionally touring to places such as Cape Verde\, France and Spain. He formed his own group\, Guerillasound\, releasing a CD in 2008 and touring successfully in Japan. \nDrummer Andy Tween is one of Bristol’s busiest musicians who has in the past toured with Pee Wee Ellis and Seth Lakeman\, and more recently with rock band Curved Air. He teaches at Wells Cathedral School and is also a composer who has had his work used by the BBC and the Discovery Channel. \nHave a listen to their album promo here: Three Elms

SUMMARY:Comedy: Abigoliah Schamaun LEGALLY CHEEKY
DESCRIPTION:Abigoliah Schamaun thought she had it all; the flat\, the career\, the life partner. This US transplant was living The American Dream…in London. Then one day\, the Wicked Witch of Westminster\, told Abigoliah to click her sparkly heels and go ‘home’. In that moment\, everything changed. To lose would mean losing everything. \nMuch to her surprise\, Brexit means Brexit\, even for non-Europeans. Abigoliah’s quest for the HolyVisa began\, and the fight was very much On. \nLegally Cheeky charts Abigoliah Schamaun’s journey in a heart-warming tale of highs\, lows\, twists and turns as she recounts the year that shook her and her partner Tom to the core. Her natural lust for life and infectious positivity transforms the painful and frustrating horror of bureaucracy and red tape into a joyfully hilarious shared experience; you’ll laugh\, you’ll cry\, and you’ll cheer for her to win!

SUMMARY:Jazz: Matt Anderson And Friends
DESCRIPTION:London-based saxophonist and Dankworth Prize-winning composer Matt Anderson released his fourth album\, Live at Leeds Jazz Festival\, in 2024 with his long-running quartet. This live recording from the middle of their May 2023 U.K. tour is a snapshot of the band at their best: stretching out on a set of original tunes with a characteristically open\, interactive and risk-taking approach. The roots of jazz are never far away\, with a rhythmic feel and blues sensibility that is anchored in the tradition\, however the music also expands into other areas such as modal and contemporary harmony and British folk-style melodies\, giving the group a distinctive identity. \n“a well-integrated\, swinging and supremely confident ensemble… [with] a soulful depth to his musicality that underpins the academic attention to detail” – Jazzwise **** \n“The band’s synergy as an ensemble shines brightly in this live setting… a must-listen album” – Jazz in Europe \nBorn in the North Yorkshire Moors\, the son of a music teacher and based in Leeds for a time\, Matt has lived in London since 2015. Becoming part of the fertile jazz scene in the capital\, he has since performed with artists/bands such as Will Vinson\, Greg Hutchinson (with the Jiannis Pavlidis Quintet)\, Ivo Neame\, the Gareth Lockrane and Calum Gourlay big bands\, Jamie Doe’s Magic Lantern and Hannes Riepler\, and he has also toured in New Zealand\, Eastern Europe and Scandinavia. In 2023\, he became a D’Addario Woodwinds artist and was also made an Associate of the Royal Academy of Music for contributions to the music industry.\nFor this appearance\, Matt will be joined by some of his favourite musicians from the Bristol music scene\, playing for the first time with pianist Rebecca Nash and drummer Andy Hague\, alongside his long-time collaborator bassist Will Harris\, who is a regular member of the Matt Anderson Quartet. \n
