The Lukas Oravec and Alex Garnett Quintet at the Northern Monkey
NORTHERN Monkey will host one of the country's top touring jazz quintets tomorrow night
Former Canon Slade pupil, jazz pianist and composer Jamil Sheriff approached Bolton-based arts organisation, Live From Worktown after they suddenly left without a gig.
Dave Morgan, who was at the Northern Monkey when the message came through. He had a quick word with the manager and another gig was booked.
The Lukas Oravec and Alex Garnett Quintet will perform at 8pm.
The band is a set of internationally renowned award-winning musicians who play up-beat progressive jazz across the UK.
Live from Worktown has worked with Jamil on a number of projects particularly his suite Rafe’s Dilemma based on ‘Spring and Port Wine’ and commissioned for the 2018 Bill Naughton Festival.
Dave said:"This was too big an opportunity to miss. Lukas is one of Central Europe’s leading jazz trumpeters. Tenor Sax man Alex has been a regular host at Ronnie Scott’s Soho Club for many years supporting acts as diverse as Wynton Marsalis and the Rolling Stones. And, of course, it’s always a pleasure working with Jamil."
The band will play two 45minute sets and the event is free. Seating is first come, first served.
