Free gig at the Southbank

[Alexander Hawkins]

Just to say, for anyone in London (or the area): my Ensemble is playing a free show at the Front Room of the Queen Elizabeth Hall tomorrow...please do come along if you're at a loose end!

Details here.

...we then embark on a short tour in July, taking in Oxford, Derby, Newcastle, London, and Reading, before visiting the studio. On the dates in Derby and Newcastle, we'll be joined by the awesome Corey Mwamba on vibes in place of Orphy Robinson (Corey posts here occasionally, and will, I hope, be familiar to UK residents!!!).

Details for the curious on this page.

...and, just in case anyone here is reading in Portugal, The Convergence Quartet meets for the first time in fractionally over a year, to launch our new album, 'Song/Dance' on Clean Feed...it's the Coimbra International Jazz Festival, for those wanting some great food and wine, quite apart from some (I hope, and we'll try) good music!
