Patch, 21 Nov 2025
Perhaps the most original group to emerge from Southend's Jazz 825 scene
Formed back in 2020, Amalgam started out as a collection of musicians rehearsing over the internet at the time of 'social distancing'. From this period emerged a collection of original material that went into the first album, called "Colours", released back in 2023.
They will be performing a blend of original music along with an assortment of pieces from some of the greats of contemporary American and European jazz such as Pat Metheny, Chick Corea and Arild Andersen
Amalgam are:
Lawrence Harper: Trumpet
Dave Whiting: Guitar
Dave Lee: Keyboards
Jason Nicholls: Bass
Trevor Taylor: Drums
£9 (inclusive of booking fee)
The Patch bar will be open - serving hot, cold food and alcoholic beverages!
