We had hoped to welcome back The Basin Street Brawlers for this jazz evening, but we are sorry to say that they can't make it. However, their trumpeter, Peter Horsfall, has thankfully come to the rescue and will perform with three members of another band he plays in, Kansas Smitty's House Band.

This band performs at venues such as Ronnie Scott’s and BBC radio. It promises to be a great night, so do watch this space for further details and ticket availability. In the meantime, here's a video where you can get a taste of their music.
