CJC is back in a new venue from 25 March, upstairs at Nectar, above The Kingslander!
And we’re thrilled to kick off with the hard-swinging organ of Michel Benebig!
Michel is well-loved by CJC audiences, since his first gig here back in the days of the 1885 basement.
Hailing from New Caledonia, he’s reuniting with locals Roger Manins, Michael Howell, and Ron Samsom, and for the first time Finn Scholes, building on the connections he’s made here over the many years he’s played and toured through our country.
Be there from the very start of our new chapter! We’ll see you there!
