Rhostio Speciality Coffee, Cardiff, Jazz Cocktail Series, March - June 2023.

Thursday, March 16, 2023

All dates have been confirmed for the Jazz Cocktail @ Rhostio series on the last Saturday each month. Listings attached.

From Facebook;


Following our enchanting evening with world-renowned Nashville-based jazz singer ERIN BODE (Sat 11 March), we’re hosting a regular monthly session “Jazz Cocktail @ Rhostio”.


Showcasing the best of jazz from South Wales and beyond, we look forward to celebrating names both familiar and new over the coming months.


Join us for a regular date in Rhostio’s intimate jazz-lounge setting, with some of the finest performers around, along with cocktail specials and coffee roasted on site!


We commence our series with “Take Four”: 4 great acts for your eclectic jazz mix from Swing to the Beatles, Bluegrass to Jazz Fusion, a musicology-meets-mixology treat if you then add your cocktail temptation (Rhostio’s Espresso Martini’s are recommended!).


With thanks to Elizabeth Jane Williams, James, Donnie Jo, and Sean for their enthusiastic response to the invitation.


That takes us to the end of June. Musicians are welcome to get in touch, we aim to showcase talent familiar and new.


Do *Spread the Word*: if we can build an audience, that means pull through to support future live jazz music!

THE J4 QUARTET - THE BEATLES WITH A JAZZ TWIST
#thebeatles #jazz #improv
“At this stage of musical history it’s not easy to find something new to say within the framework of The Beatles catalogue but J4 have managed it. Their arrangements are faithful to the spirit of the original songs but allow plenty of room for variation, improvisation and self expression.” (The Jazzman, Ian Man),

 

SAT 27 May

SAT 24 June
THE BLUESTERS
#jazz #fusion
“The Bluesters are a four-piece rock, blues, and jazz fusion band”. There’s no fussy words of promotion with these guys, they let their instruments do the talking. Think Dave Brubeck meets Jeff Beck.
