Following the concert by The Amati Piano Trio, Friday evening continues with a jazz party at the Royal Oak Hotel featuring Pete Barnard and the Jazz and Booze Band.
Pete Barnard formed his present band five years ago, to play not only mainstream jazz standards and favourites, but to range widely over the work of the more colourful musicians on the fringe of jazz such as Louis Jordan and Mose Allison. The band’s repertoire now also includes music written by people outside jazz altogether such as Rod Stewart.
The style of the band is first and foremost to entertain, with most numbers featuring the vocals of Pete Barnard in a sparkling performance that places the audience’s enjoyment first, alongside musical excellence from the band. And if, at the end of the evening, the bar is drunk dry and the people go home singing, then for Pete and the band the gig has been yet another guaranteed success.
THE ROYAL OAK HOTEL at 9.00 p.m.
Tickets £2.00
