Last weekend we were invited to perform at Haversham Village School’s 50th Anniversary. It was a fantastic event which celebrated the school’s success, with alumni and current students present. There was even a performance from some of the children which was great! 

The Jazz Juice quartet was booked to play for a few hours with space for a couple of speeches midway through, and we mainly focused our repertoire to match the 50yrs of the school, adapting some hits within this period alongside traditional jazz band repertoire, to really set a beautiful atmosphere to the day. 

Despite being prepared for the worst weather-wise in a marquee, the sun came out and the guests were able to enjoy the music and event in the sunshine! Perfect! 

Performing at Le Bistro, Wendover

Last night the Jazz Trio performed at Le Bistro in Wendover – a fantastic restaurant whose food is well respected county-wide.

We were booked specifically for a party taking place at the restaurant, and it happened that one of the customers was a jazz aficionado, requesting tunes such as ‘Flamingo’, ‘Sweet Georgia Brown’, and ‘Satin Doll’, which we were only too happy to perform.

It was lovely to see the guys dancing to our repertoire, as well as the other patrons who stayed longer to see the end of our set.

It sounds like the venue also want to create a regular jazz club night, with us as the house band – very exciting – so we’ll be sure to let you know when that comes to pass!
