Saoco Collective is a latin jazz group arising out of various projects and collaborations from Cuban born trumpeter/composer Michel Padron (now resident in Spain) and pianist/composer Jim Blomfield. Recognised as one of the UK's finest latin jazz and salsa pianists, Jim Blomfield has worked with such legends of the genre as Roberto Pla, Henry Fiol and Asere as well as a host of UK names from the world of jazz. Alongside Jim in the rhythm section is the brilliantly dynamic percussion section of Lisa Cherian and Jon Clark, their rhythmic chemistry having evolved from their collective experiences as being much in demand players in ensembles such as Bristol Salsa Orchestra, Dockside Latin Orchestra, Baila La Cumbia and Buena Bristol Social Club. The rhythm section is completed by the ever inventive bass playing of 'Tosh' Wijetunge who worked with Jim for several years in a piano trio that released two albums of original contemporary jazz compositions.
Alongside Michel Padron's fiery latin trumpet virtuosity is the brilliant and soulful Swiss born saxophonist Martin Kern who worked and recorded extensively in both Berlin and Vienna before moving to the UK in 2018.
You are invited to a very special night of Afro-Cuban, Salsa and Latin Jazz. Don't miss it.
Tickets are also available at TREBLEROCK Guitar Shop, 52 The Mall in Clifton Village.
