£8 EB / £10 ADV / £12 OTD Tollbar play ‘Groove-jazz’: jazzy sounds rooted in solid drum grooves. It may want to be called ‘jazz’, but you’ll hear sprinkles of calypso, Afro-Cuban, afrobeat, and reggae in the sets of original tunes written by band members and polished in endless jams and rehearsals. Two saxophones take the lead (Nick Cavill alto and Stan Lewis tenor) with a solid rhythm section of vibraphone (Tony Korycki) guitar (Matt Birkett) double bass (Andy Brown) and drums (Jim Adnitt). The band came together as all the musicians had played in numerous pop, funk, soul and covers bands around Manchester and beyond, but wanted to try something a bit different… Don’t expect chin-stroking serious jazz. You’re going to get infectious grooves, jazzy sounds and a great vibe. Artists on stage: 8.00pm Curfew: 11.00pm Stage: The Copper Bar Audience: Unreserved Seating plus Ltd Standing
