'Here Forever': Local Industrial Heritage Exhibition
2023-06-11 10:00 - 16:00, 2023-06-10 10:00 - 17:00, 2023-06-09 10:00 - 17:00
‘Here Forever’
Local Industrial Heritage Exhibition

An exhibition celebrating work, community and change at Morlands and Baily’s

Opening Dates & Times:
Friday 9th June: 10am – 5pm
Saturday 10th June: 10am – 5pm
Sunday 11th June: 10am – 4pm
Entry is free

Did you know the Red Brick Building used to be a sheepskin factory known as Morlands?
Renowned for quality, their flying jackets and sheepskin boots were made for RAF pilots who fought in the Battle of Britain!

The Red Brick Building is delighted to be hosting an exhibition focusing on the town’s industrial heritage, celebrating the experiences of people who worked at Morlands and Baily’s. This is one part of a larger project based at the Red Brick Building, funded by Historic England, which is researching and sharing material linked to our “Everyday Heritage”.
At the heart of the exhibition are the voices of local people who have been interviewed and recorded talking about their memories of their roles at the two companies, both of which employed huge numbers of people across the area in all aspects of the sheepskin processing and manufacturing industry.
Visitors will be able to listen to recordings of these voices as well as looking at the many photographs, press cuttings and documents linked to the companies. These all testify to the significance of the sheepskin industry and the importance of skilled craftsmanship on a local, regional and international scale. There will also be a range of vintage artefacts produced at the factories and loaned by local people – seeing sheepskin coats and boots in an exhibition might make you appreciate them in a fresh way!
Project co-ordinator Alison Horgan says “It is the culmination of a lot of research and many fascinating conversations with people of Glastonbury, Wells, Street and beyond. There is such a rich history in the area and we are really pleased to be able to bring this together and share it with the community.” Visitors will discover the gruesome details of jobs such as ‘rounding’ and the physically exhausting work which went into treating the skins. They will also hear of the camaraderie among workers and how the companies provided for their workers with sports clubs, Christmas parties, inter-factory skittles contests and a long-running works magazine.
The project has been supported by a dedicated team of volunteers, Strode College and local youth groups have also played their parts in making the plans come to life. We hope you will enjoy a look back in time and also learn about the journey of the Red Brick Building from Industry to social enterprise and what the future holds for these important buildings.

Also for those to brush up on their fusion technique. Open level.
11am – 1pm: Flamenco Taster – Garrotin with Fulya
An introduction to Flamenco via the palo of Garrotin, which is in the 4/4 time signature – which makes it a good place for beginners in flamenco dance to start. This palo is unusual as it is not from Andalusia; the home of flamenco in the south. It originated in Asturias in Northern Spain.
1pm – 2pm: Lunch
2pm – 4pm: Jacqui’s Y’Baladi with Jacqui Jamal
Call me a country girl but don’t you just love that deep soulful expression of love and longing transforming into sheer joy for people and party – Allegria!

Sunday Schedule:
9am – 11am: Feather Fans Burlesque with Fulya
‘Night Train’ is a typical Burlesque Jazz Standard Big Band track from the 1950’s. Learn a conceal and reveal choreography with ostrich feather fans. No nudity or stripping involved; just voluptuous movement and fabulous fans! No need to own a pair of fans as they are provided, but if you have your own do bring them along. Please wear clothes that give you free range of motion – a Basque is fine but a steel boned corset will be too restrictive. A medium high heel can be worn if desired.
11am – 1pm: Vintage Fusion with Rachael Redfern
Learn beautiful vintage Fusion, inspired by the femme fatales of the silent movie era, such as Theda Bara, and Louise Brooks. Echoes of ‘Maria’, the heroine from ‘Metropolis’. This workshop will bring out The Vamp in you! Rachael will build on moves and put them into a beautiful and alluring vintage fusion choreography.
1pm – 2pm: Lunch
2pm – 4pm: Queens of Belly Dance, Signature Moves from the Last 100 years! with Arabella

We’ll pop over to Paris and Josephine Baker in the 1920s & 30s and back to Egypt’s Samia Gamal 1940s & 50s, Nagwa Fouad 1960s & 70s, Fifi Abdou 1970s onwards and Dina today’s reigning Queen of Cairo hearts! This workshop is a delicious selection box of signature moves for you to take away and weave into your own dance or teaching, or to simply enjoy on the day. Open level.
4pm – 6pm: Precious Props: The Belly Dancer’s Treasure Pack (Goddess Pathworking) with Guinevere
Using veil, candles and Saiidi cane, learn 3 unique, stylised Belly Dancer’s Treasure Pack sequences, tailored to prop work, with Treasure Pack creator Guinevere. Inspired by your card choices, you will then devise your own dance sequence working with your chosen prop, individually and in pairs. The session concludes with an exciting finale group piece, including everyone’s new moves. Get ready for flowing creativity, precious prop connection, new performance skills, and fun partner work. (Candle jars, candles, canes and veils are provided if needed. Do also bring any other of your precious props, such as swords, wings or trays if you’d like to work with them). Open level.

Friday Night Jazz: The Duncan Anselm Quintet
2023-05-26 19:30 - 2023-05-27 00:00
The Red Hot Jazz Club presents
The Duncan Anselm Quintet

Playing the music of Charles Mingus

*N.B. Advance ticket sales will stop on Thursday evening. A limited number of entry-only tickets will be available to purchase on the door on Friday evening.*

The Red Hot Jazz Club are excited to welcome The Duncan Anslem Quintet to Glastonbury, playing all the best and well-known tunes by the legendary Charles Mingus.

Charles Mingus Jr. was an American jazz upright bassist, pianist, composer, bandleader, and author. A major proponent of collective improvisation, he is considered to be one of the greatest jazz musicians and composers in history.
With a career spanning three decades, he collaborated with other jazz musicians such as Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, and Herbie Hancock.
His compositions retain the hot and soulful feel of hard bop, drawing heavily from black gospel music and blues, while sometimes containing elements of free jazz and classical music. He once cited Duke Ellington and the church as his main influences.

Duncan Anselm on Alto-sax is a very familiar face in the West and has performed many times in various guises. Joining him tonight, we are thrilled to have Sam Crockatt, a well-known name on the Bristol and London Jazz Scene playing Tenor-sax. They will be supported by amazing local players Richard Jenkins on Piano, Luke Belcher on Bass and Jon Clark on drums.
Tonight we will be enjoying some excellent versions of the very best Mingus tunes, including the smooth ‘Goodbye Pork Pie Hat‘, the exultant ‘Better Git It in Your Soul‘ and the up-beat ‘The Jumpin’ Blues‘.
Plus, there’s the option to enjoy a delicious dinner from The Old Tannery while you watch the show.
Come down to the Jazz Club, pre-order some Jazz supper from The Old Tannery and join us for a sumptuous night of Mingus moves.

Featuring:
Duncan Anselm – Alto Sax
Sam Crockatt – Tenor Sax
Richard Jenkins – Piano
Luke Belcher – Bass
John Clark – Drums

The Undercover Hippy
Plus Support from State of Satta

*N.B. Advance ticket sales will stop at 4pm on Saturday. Additional tickets will be available to purchase on the door from 8pm on Saturday.*

Intelligent, provocative lyrics with dangerously catchy hooks and a feel good groove!

The Undercover Hippy and his full band will be back in Glastonbury as part of their 2023 Spring Tour.

Drum and Bass MC turned singer-songwriter Billy Rowan, aka The Undercover Hippy, is definitely not your average singer-songwriter. Described by BBC 6 Music’s Tom Robinson as being “like the love-child of Steel Pulse, Kate Tempest and The Sleaford Mods”, his music brings together powerful messages, infectious reggae rhythms, and the lyrical delivery of a skilled MC. Think Natty meets Eminem…on a protest march…at the Edinburgh Fringe.

Renowned for the electric atmosphere of their live shows, Billy and his band have performed at some of the UK’s best festivals, including Glastonbury, Boomtown Fair, Shambala, Green Man, The Secret Garden Party, Ireland’s Electric Picnic, and many more.

One of Billy’s biggest strengths is the way he manages to pack his songs full of political and social commentary, whilst at the same time remaining playful and uplifting.

Support: State of Satta are a 7-piece Reggae band based in Leeds. Having formed in the ashes of 2020, the band have quickly established a name for themselves with their energetic stage show, rambunctious bass lines and beautifully crafted multi-lingual melodies. Inspired by the sounds of Jamaican and Cuban music, State of Satta are carrying on the lineage of bands like Gentleman’s Dub Club, UB40 and Fat Freddy’s Drop amongst many other dub influences.

Having reached #4 in the iTunes reggae charts, TBB have self released 2 EPs. Both records have received national airplay from the likes of legendary DJ David Rodigan on BBC Radio 1 Extra and numerous plays on BBC Introducing.
The Bandit has had the pleasure of supporting renowned artists such as Lee “Scratch” Perry, Katchafire, The Cat Empire, Easy Star All-Stars, Dubioza Kolectiv, Gentleman’s Dub Club, Horace Panter & Lynval Golding (The Specials) and have been regular openers for electronica dub favourites, Dreadzone.
The group are gearing up to release their debut album later this year, which was recorded at the illustrious Karma Sound Studios in Thailand.

Friday Night Jazz: Yetii
2023-03-31 19:30 - 2023-04-01 00:00
The Red Hot Jazz Club presents
Yetii
Featuring Jake McMurchie

*N.B. Advance ticket sales will stop on Thursday evening. A limited number of entry-only tickets will be available to purchase on the door on Friday evening.*

The Red Hot Jazz Club is very happy to welcome Bristol based piano trio Yetii, bringing their original compositions and versions of popular songs from The Beatles, Joni Mitchell and Nick Drake, alongside reworked jazz classics.
Yetii creates a sound world of complex yet consonant harmony supporting simple, singable melodies. Solos morph into intense group improvisations that focus on interlocking, minimalist fragments: a shared single voice that ebbs and flows between and within the band’s original compositions.
The band has been playing together for 5 years, with a monthly residency at The Greenbank in Bristol to a regularly sold out crowd. The band released their debut album ‘Live at The Greenbank’ in November 2022 to critical acclaim.

“A trio of fluent and wildly inventive improvisers” – London Jazz News
“Sensitive, nuanced and not afraid of understatement- always performed with personality, wit and humour… A great outfit to watch!” – Alex Merritt
“Long has developed into the kind of musician who makes bass solos interesting” – The Jazzmann
“Expect improvised goodness” – Bristol247

Plus, there’s the option to enjoy a delicious dinner from The Old Tannery while you watch the show.

Featuring:
Alex Veitch – Piano
Ashley John Long – Bass

Plus, guest Jake McMurchie – Sax
