Ian Matthews & Friends

Join us at Palladino’s Jazz & Blues Bar for a special evening with Ian Matthews & Friends.

Known to many as the driving force behind Kasabian, Ian Matthews brings his deep musicality back to the jazz stage for this unique project. A drummer with both power and finesse, Matthews combines arena-honed precision with a genuine love for groove, swing, and improvisation.

For this performance, the band draws inspiration from the rich, melodic legacy of Wes Montgomery — blending warm, lyrical themes with soulful swing and rhythmic interplay. Expect a set that moves fluidly between classic jazz textures and the modern, groove-led energy associated with contemporary acts like The Jazz Defenders.

With a handpicked lineup of exceptional players, Ian Matthews & Friends promise an evening of expressive solos, tight ensemble work, and the kind of musical conversation that only happens live.

Book your tickets now for a night of inspired, high-calibre jazz at Palladino’s Jazz & Blues Bar.
