Jazz in the Theatre
Music
UNTIL Friday 11th December
Jazz is returning to the theatre as lockdown ends.
Andy Williamson plays soulful tunes on the saxophone and sings a wide variety of blues songs and he'll be performing at Bridport Arts Centre next month.
Andy has performed with Tom Robinson, Suggs, Martha Reeves the Vandellas and even at Buckingham Palace.
In addition, he has played sax - sometimes while abseiling - with the Honkin' Hep Cats, formed the Big Buzzard Boogie Band with Ned Bennett, and also directs the Bristol Jazz Festival Chorus. He often performs with poet Matt Harvey, recently taking the Bridport Literary Festival by storm.
Andy has performed ambitious works with large ensembles at the Bristol Jazz Festival; a while ago it was Duke Ellington's Sacred Concert, and last year the Gershwin Spectacular, a jazz oratorio featuring vocalist Jacqui Dankworth.
His versatile style on saxophones (alto, tenor and baritone) and vocals creates an interesting, eclectic and highly enjoyable performance, which will be complemented by Philip Clouts at the piano.
Andy Williamson will be at Bridport Arts Centre on Friday, December 11 at 8pm.
Tickets cost £12 and are available at bridport-arts.com or from Bridport Tourist Information Centre by calling 01308 424901.
