SUMMARY:Music: Nigel Wearne
DESCRIPTION:Solo performance \nCRH Music invites you to a unique opportunity to experience a solo performance by Australian singer-songwriter / guitarist\, Nigel Wearne. \nMarking a return to his roots as a folk songwriter\, he launches his latest album\, ‘The Lone Reckoning’. A raw\, emotive\, stripped-back rendition of his 2023 award-nominated album ‘The Reckoning’. \nSelf-produced by Wearne\, ‘The Lone Reckoning’ features the same 11 songs as the full band album with 3 additional bonus tracks\, all recorded in their original form; solo and acoustic. \nNigel’s had a huge couple of years touring internationally\, performing at some of the world’s most prestigious music festivals including Hardly Strictly Bluegrass (USA)\, Cambridge Folk Festival (UK)\, MerleFest (USA)\, Philadelphia Folk Festival (USA) and Adelaide Guitar Festival (Australia). \nHailing from Gunditjmara Country in the deep south of Australia\, Nigel Wearne saunters after dark in the music of the night\, blending blues\, folk and Americana-noir. A deep thinker and truth seeker with a penchant for all things peculiar\, he sings of human frailty\, grace and the cosmos; songwriting that cuts to the bone. \n“Tailor made for fans of Tom Waits… with fire and brimstone lyrics that recall Nick Cave” – Rhythms Magazine \n“Poignant and mysterious” – Maverick Magazine UK \n“Vocal swagger of Van Morrison and dark spirituality and intelligence of Nick Cave” 4 STARS – The Australian \n  \nNigel blends his influences\, creating music that weaves its way through blues. jazz and Ameriana-noir. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Heading

SUMMARY:Jazz: James Borland Quartet
DESCRIPTION:James Borland – trumpet\, Nick Manz – piano\, Ben Love – bass\, Kai Chareunsy – drums. \nTrumpeter James Borland first visited the club in Nov 23 as part of the Birmingham based sextet Abacus led by Liam Brennan\, and impressed greatly with his warm sound and inventive phrasing. James was recently seen in national media performing with Bostin Brass\, the band picked to lead the funeral cortège for Ozzy Osbourne. \nOne of the most in-demand young musicians of the vibrant Birmingham jazz scene\, his characterful improvising speaks both of his love of the jazz tradition and also the forward-thinking melodicism of contemporary NY figureheads such as Ambrose Akinmusire and Immanuel Wilkins. His quartet brings together an impressive young rhythm section who share his love of free-flowing\, exciting jazz music\, featuring sought-after bass and drum team Ben Love and Kai Chareunsy\, and BBC Young Jazz Musician finalist Nick Manz on piano. The quartet play James’ original music\, alongside carefully selected favourites from jazz pioneers. \n
