SUMMARY:ShadeINDIGO hosted by Cherise
DESCRIPTION:ShadeINDIGO (founded by Jazz/Soul vocalist CHERISE) and the Fox and Firkin come together for a collaborative series of live showcases\, with a shared belief in spotlighting excellent musicians who create with purpose and passion. Rooted in community and craft\, these events celebrate emerging talent in a great night of live music!   On our first installation we have 2 exciting artists: \nBen Cipolla is a singer and guitarist whose music blends soulful vocals\, jazzy textures\, and acoustic pop warmth. Like Nick Drake\, he brings melodic subtlety and quiet intensity to his playing\, while echoing John Martyn’s adventurous textures and Jack Johnson’s easygoing charm. His versatile repertoire spans jazz standards\, bossa nova classics\, and reimagined pop favourites\, keeping a natural fusion of genres at the heart of his sound. Based in Bristol and inspired by his Sicilian heritage\, Cipolla has released two acclaimed albums\, including Casa Mia\, and is preparing his third for release in 2026. \nPianist and composer Emily Tran is one of the most exciting young jazz artists emerging from the London scene. Since joining the ever-growing community of Tomorrow’s Warriors\, she has developed a versatile musical voice and has played in a range of ensembles in venues such as the Queen Elizabeth Hall\, Ronnie Scott’s and the Barbican. She has arranged and played for the Nu Civilisation Orchestra and wrote the original score for BBC Radio 3’s ‘Gatsby in Harlem’\, which won 3 awards at the British Audio Awards\, one being the prestigious Audio of The Year. Alongside playing with other artists\, her solo project\, The Emily Tran Quintet\, is a sonic collage of influences \, shedding light on her varied musical upbringing – from playing piano and organ in the Vietnamese Church as a child\, to more recently studying classical composition at the Royal Academy of Music. Her versatility has made her an in-demand player and composer and has seen her play at Love Supreme Festival\, Brick Lane Jazz Festival and We Out Here. The music is spirited\, with a quiet intensity that makes the band one to watch out for!

SUMMARY:An Evening of Stan Getz & João Gilberto
DESCRIPTION:An Evening of Stan Getz / João Gilberto performed By Mario Bakuna Band\nFebruary 5th\,\nDoors: 7.30 \nMario Bakuna Band invites the audience to celebrate two of the most important artists of all time: the American saxophonist Stan Getz and Brazilian guitarist João Gilberto in a tribute to the iconic album Getz/Gilberto. \nGetz/Gilberto was recorded in 1963 and is considered the album that popularised bossa nova worldwide and is one of the best-selling jazz records of all time\, selling over one million copies. It was widely acclaimed by music critics\, received the Grammy Award for Best Jazz Instrumental Album\, and also became the first non-American album to win Album of the Year\, in 1965.\nIn an evening full of harmonic richness\, Mario Bakuna Band will transport the audience on an incredible journey through one of our most treasured musical pieces. \n \nMario Bakuna is a Brazilian composer\, arranger\, vocalist\, and guitarist\, bringing over 25 years of musical artistry to audiences worldwide\, currently based in London\, UK. Well known for his deep exploration of traditional Brazilian rhythms\, samba\, jazz\, and bossa nova\, Mario captures the spirit of Brazilian swing\, blending it with refined jazz colours in both his original compositions and fresh arrangements of works by iconic artists such as Tom Jobim\, Dorival Caymmi\, Paulo Moura\, and João Donato. \nSince moving to Europe to deepen his artistic research and expand his horizons\, Mario has become a prominent figure in the UK’s Brazilian jazz scene — a key reference for the fusion of Brazilian music and contemporary jazz. His captivating performances have taken him far beyond London\, with tours across more than 20 European countries\, as well as Brazil\, Canada\, Madagascar\, Egypt\, Kazakhstan\, Azerbaijan\, Kaliningrad\, and Taiwan. Over the years\, he has built a distinctive international career\, enchanting audiences in both intimate jazz clubs and on grand festival stages around the world. From performing for 3\,000 people in Azerbaijan and 7\,000 in Kaliningrad to achieving a record audience of 150\,000 people at the Taichung Jazz Festival in Taiwan\, Mario has reached milestones that reflect the universal appeal and emotional depth of his performances. \nDriven by a passion for musical exploration\, Mario has collaborated with artists including Jean Toussaint\, Alain Jean-Marie\, Liam Noble\, Edmundo Carneiro\, Guinga\, Cacau Queiroz\, Ricardo dos Santos\, Daniel Jobim\, Nelson Ayres\, Robertinho Silva\, and Filó Machado.\nHis acclaimed albums Where Rio de Janeiro Meets Bahia and Brazilian Landscapes showcase his ability to fuse traditional roots with a contemporary musical sensibility. With sold-out concerts\, glowing reviews\, and growing international recognition\, Mario Bakuna continues to celebrate and expand the language of Brazilian jazz — bringing its rhythm\, warmth\, and sophistication to audiences around the globe. \n“Mario Bakuna\, a sparkling guitarist\, plays with palpable feeling – his virtuosic fluency on the fretboard is controlled and flourishes are perfectly placed. His voice has a texture like heavy cloth” – Songlines Magazine \n“Mario Bakuna\, a man who exudes music. (…) ‘vocals’ doesn’t begin to do him justice: his expressive range and the precision with which he was able to deploy it was truly the band’s fifth instrument. (…) And he did this while playing guitar with precision and finesse. (…) his solos were a further source of amazement\, his technique somewhere between finger-picking style and classical. His solo introduction to a Baden Powell number made a hash of any attempt at a definition.” – The Whitman Review\, Wakefield Jazz

SUMMARY:New Car Smell ft Amy True + Caytra
DESCRIPTION:NEW CAR SMELL ft AMY TRUE \n“A punk trio disguised as a brass band”. NEW CAR SMELL caters to those who like to do things differently. Using the power of their lungs to combine the high speed intensity of DnB with the anarchy of Rock (and maybe some Funk if they take it easy on you); this band aims to fulfill only one intention\, to move everything within their sonic radius. \n  \n+ CAYTRA & DJs \n  \nNEW CAR SMELL \nBorn out of a desire to challenge convention\, NEW CAR SMELL is for those who dare to do things differently. \nBy taking their instruments beyond their traditional boundaries; NEW CAR SMELL prove that what you have doesn’t define what you are. Tuba isn’t just classical\, a sax isn’t confined to jazz\, and DnB beats don’t have to be programmed. With music that redefines expectations\, they blend the unexpected into a sound that’s fresh\, organic\, and alive. \nFrom underground and alternative venues in London and Bristol (Hootananny\, The Jago\, Mr Wolf’s\, Rich Mix) to major festivals like Boardmasters\, Boomtown\, and Camp Bestival; NEW CAR SMELL’s performances bring dance and groove music into a free-flowing\, (literally) breathing space.  \nOnce described as “a punk trio disguised as a brass band\,” NEW CAR SMELL embody the spirit of risk and reinvention. They stand for change\, for dismantling the status quo\, and rejecting the essentialist narratives that we’re fed daily. Consider yourself conscripted into a change worth making. \n  \nCAYTRA\nOriginally formed from a basement jam\, Caytra is a timestamp of each member’s uniqueness and symbiosis showcasing a blend of Hip Hop\, Funk\, Jazz and Rock. With London’s diverse nightlife at the heart of their sound and the UK Jazz scene at the forefront of their influence\, Caytra’s defining characteristic is their blend of technicality and dance-ability.
