An exciting night of swing, blues and bebop. Alto sax-led group comprising Duncan Anselm with Richard Jenkins (piano), Adrian Smith (double bass) and Greg White (drums). Expect to hear material from the Blue Note era by the likes of Hank Mobley, Grant Green and Sonny Clark.
Duncan Anselm was a prominent player on the Bristol scene through the late eighties and early nineties, both with his own band and as an original member of Mingus Fingers.

This new quartet heralds an exciting return to the scene for this accomplished musician and composer.

BOCABAR JAZZ SESSION WITH THE JAZZ DEFENDERS
2017-11-03 19:00 - 23:30
The Jazz Defenders are a group born out of a deep love for Blue Note Records – specifically the hard bop recordings of Horace Silver, Hank Mobley, Lee Morgan and Art Blakey. Catchy horn lines and incredible musicianship combined with Rudy Van Gelder’s engineering skills mean they will forever be regarded as classics of the genre. The Jazz Defenders are a group that would ‘defend’ the legacy of those recordings whilst creating its own original identity and distinctive flair.
Featuring some of Bristol’s finest players the line-up is Nick Dover (tenor saxophone), Nick Malcolm (trumpet), Matt Brown (drums), Will Harris (bass), and George Cooper (piano). The music that they produce together is a modern Soul Jazz slant on classic Hard Bop, effortlessly channelling the spirit of the golden Blue Note era of Jazz.
As session musicians in their own right, the five members of the band have worked with a variety of internationally acclaimed artists such as Nigel Kennedy, Massive Attack, Pee Wee Ellis, Andy Sheppard, Get The Blessing, Simon Spillet, Alan Barnes, Rodriguez & Nostalgia 77, as well as playing at venues including Ronnie Scott’s, The Jazz Cafe & The 606 Club.
7.30–11pm • Tickets: music only £5; music + table and mezze £14. Available in advance and on door. Booking advisable. T: 01458 440558 or email bocabarglastonbury@btconnect.com.
