Steve Buckley Quartet – North Devon Jazz Club

SUPERB SAXOPHONIST AT THE BEAVER

A quartet led by superb saxophonist/clarinetist Steve Buckley, will perform at North Devon Jazz Club in the Beaver, Appledore on 16 March.

An influential figure on the UK jazz scene, Steve was a founder member of the pioneer bands Loose Tubes and Big Air. His travels in African countries and elsewhere have strongly influenced his music, particularly through his membership of the Pan African Orchestra and Latin American bands, and these influences will be strongly in evidence at The Beaver gig.

Also featuring in the band will be the talented pianist Will Butterworth. The fine rhythm team will be Marcus Vergette on bass and Jem Fatna on drums.

Now living in Devon Steve has continued with projects, including playing with the legendary South African pianist Tete Mbambisa and with a re-united Loose Tubes.

The gig is hosted by the North Devon Jazz Club. Keep up the good work NDJC. There is no entrance fee, however a collection is taken for the band.

The Beaver gig starts at 8.30 pm. For a meal booking phone 01237 474822.
