Join us for another fabulous evening of jazz
Join us for another fabulous evening of jazz with this quartet featuring Derek Nash - British Jazz Award-winning bandleader, composer, arranger, record producer and engineer - one of the UK’s busiest jazz musicians. He is leader of six bands, each with its own unique sound and featuring some of the top jazz musicians in the UK today.
Derek has been a full-time member of the Jools Holland Rhythm & Blues Orchestra since 2004 and is also a member of the Ronnie Scott’s Blues Explosion. With these bands, he has enjoyed sharing the stage with many great artists including Tom Jones, Eric Clapton, David Sanborn, Jack Bruce, Amy Winehouse, Michael Bublé and Sir Paul McCartney. He is one of the most in-demand and respected guest instrumentalists for jazz clubs across the UK and has received numerous nominations in the British Jazz Awards. www.dereknash.com
He will be accompanied by former local, now London-based stellar guitarist Sam Plackett, talented double bassist Simon Wood, who is equally at home playing classical concerts and local jazz jam organiser Elmer van der Hoek on drums.

*We want our music nights @ patch to be all about the music. Therefore the 7pm arrival allows for drink orders. There will be a short break in between sets. We ask for chatting to be kept to a minimum out of respect to the musicians during the sets. We appreciate your cooperation in advance.
On the night you will be able to purchase light bites and alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks.
We look forward to seeing you there!
