About Shipmans
Shipmans is the latest venue to welcome Flamingo Jazz Nights, and it's also one of Northampton’s oldest pubs. A public house has stood on this site since the early-to-mid 1700s! Over the centuries, the pub has gone through various transformations, including name changes, and today it’s well known locally for its signature cocktails.
With its cosy atmosphere, Shipmans offers an ideal setting for intimate solo and duo jazz performances. The jazz nights are held in either the Drapery Room or the Drum Room, which sit above the main pub, and provide a peaceful and intimate setting to enjoy an evening of live jazz music.
Thanks to Shipmans, we’re bringing live jazz music right into the heart of Northampton. So why not come along, enjoy the music, and sip on a classic Shipmans cocktail?
About Cool Jazz Collective
Cool Jazz Collective is a dynamic jazz ensemble that blends traditional and contemporary influences to deliver a smooth and captivating jazz experience.
Elaine Riches: Elaine’s musical journey began with the violin, but her true passion revealed itself through singing. With a background in classical choral and a cappella work, she brings a rich musicality to her performances. Though a latecomer to jazz, her love for the genre runs deep. Largely self-taught, Elaine possesses a natural talent for harmony, phrasing, and interpretation. Her distinctive tone, influenced by greats like Ella Fitzgerald and Diana Krall, blends subtlety with an impressive range - from warm, resonant lows to captivating highs that leave a lasting impression.
Neil Riches: Neil began playing piano at a young age, progressing from classical studies to jazz training at Leeds College of Music, where he earned the award for 'Best Performance on a Keyboard Instrument'. His career spans cruise ships, theatre productions, and supporting a wide range of artists. With a dynamic and expressive playing style, Neil’s lush harmonies and tasteful improvisation bring vibrancy to every performance - a perfect match for Elaine’s voice.
