The multi-talented local musician Nick Dewhurst led his well drilled and talented ensemble through an evening of festive favourites with a jazz flavour at The Hub at St Mary’s.
Launching their new tour at The Hub, the award-winning Boo Hewerdine and Heidi Talbot played a concert that mixed heartfelt folk, narrative story songs and traditional songs given a new sonic sheen.
The city is lucky to have a number of talented musical groups, but very few could raise the roof at the cathedral in the way that the Lichfield Gospel Choir did.
The talented Joe Masterson and his trio of musicians returned to The Hub at St Mary’s for another sterling set of instrumental and vocal jazz for a capacity audience.
Presenting what he described as a celebration concert rather than a tribute gig, the singer and guitarist Vernon James played some of the best known songs from the modern era.
Having occupied the drum stools for such luminaries as Roy Wood, Ruby Turner, Mica Paris and the Climax Blues Band, the drummer Roy Adams is obviously a force to be reckoned with.
The trio of drummer Steve Street, pianist Richard Hughes and double bassist Simon Smith gave an interesting performance, blending classical themes with jazz rhythms at the 2025 Lichfield Arts Jazz and Blues Festival.
The 2025 Lichfield Jazz and Blues Festival kicked off with a musically inventive evening of original music by the Bryan Corbett Instrumental Groove Unit.
