Come and join us for an afternoon of great music, lots of fun and delicious food!Emma Holcroft Quintet
Djanco
Dominic Halpin & The Honey B's
What better way to spend a Sunday afternoon than being royally entertained by 3 amazing bands while enjoying a delicious Sunday roast prepared by the superb chefs in The Grand. This afternoon promises to be relaxed, full of fun and wonderful music.
Take your seat at your table and at 1.00pm we have the brilliant Emma Holcroft Quintet featuring Cliff Ray (trumpet/flugel) and backed by The Gaz Hughes Trio. This stellar line up of northwest musicians will present your favourite standards in unique new arrangements and some songs you may not have heard before.
Next up, and by popular request, are the amazing Djanco. We had these guys perform at our 2023 Jazz Festival and the response was superb, we have been waiting for the right opportunity to bring them back to Southport.
Djanco is influenced by Stephane Grappelli, Artie Shaw, and bebop greats, such as Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie
“Their blend of virtuosic interplay between Andy Aitchison’s violin and Thom Whitworth’s guitar never fails to engage and delight. They are full of playful exchanges and cheeky chat with the crowd…fantastic, high octane, superb quality jazz in the Django Reinhardt/Stephane Grapelli mould”
Bringing this Super Sunday to a close are none other than Dominic Halpin & The Honey B's.
Dominic Halpin & The Honey B's have established themselves as one of the most in-demand acts in the UK. Since bursting onto the scene they have racked up an impressive list of show dates, from Blenheim Palace to a headline show at the Abu Dhabi International Jazz Festival. With a client list including Simon Cowell, Elle McPherson and The Savoy, London, their energetic floor show and swingin’ rhythms have entertained audiences not only throughout the UK, but also all over the world.
Guaranteed to have you singing along and probably dancing you will have a smile from ear to ear watching these guys perform.
