Black Mountain Jazz
BMJ Programme Update

OUR NEXT GIG 

Sarah Ellen Hughes Quartet

Sunday 26th May 2013 
‘Lunch & Jazz’ from 1pm or ‘Just Jazz’ from 2pm
 
The Sarah Ellen Hughes Quartet makes a welcome return to Black Mountain Jazz on the Bank Holiday Sunday - 26th May, which meets at the Swan Hotel near Abergavenny’s bus station.
 
There is no need to be a member to come to Black Mountain Jazz and there is the option of having lunch (1pm) and then listening to the Quartet’s great programme at the inclusive price of £15 inclusive, or coming from 2pm for just the jazz (£10).
 
Sarah Ellen Hughes began her career with the National Youth Jazz Orchestra.  She has since established herself as a notable presence on the London jazz scene and beyond.  Her many accolades include winning the 2010 International Jazz Singing Competition Jazz Voices, held in Lithuania.

Sarah’s first album was Darning the Dream, released in 2010 to critical acclaim.  She has appeared in most of the UK’s top jazz venues, including Ronnie Scott’s,  606 Club and Pizza on the Park.
 

Being a Bank Holiday Sunday - why cook - eat out and enjoy good music.  

Tickets for ‘Jazz with Lunch’ need to be pre-booked and are available from Mike on 07958612691.  

Those coming to ‘Just Jazz’ can reserve them by phone, or simply buy them on the door.

606 Club

One of London’s top jazz venues

The 606 Club has existed as a Jazz Club Restaurant for more than 30 years, being run by musician Steve Rubie since 1976. Originally a small 30 seater basement venue at 606 Kings Road, it built up a solid reputation through the 70’s and 80’s amongst musicians and audiences as the Jazz hang-out. The popularity of the Club amongst musicians led to the policy of only booking British based musicians in order to support the local scene, which has continued unchanged to this day. Eventually the Club outgrew its capacity and in May 1988 it moved to it’s present basement site at 90 Lots Road.
