Critically acclaimed Clement Regert's Wild Card is a melting-pot of musical ideas, fusing urban rhythms, Hard-bop and grooves with latin and jazz attitude.

For tonight’s show they have a stellar line up which comprises of special guests Saxophonist Paul Booth(Steve Winwood, Eric Clapton...) and virtuoso trumpeter, Graeme Flopwers (M.Buble, Kyle Eastwood) backed up by the core Organ trio of Sophie Alloway on Drums, Andy Noble on Hammond Organ and French guitarist/band leader Clement Regert.
You can expect to hear their famous mix of Afro-jazz, Hard-bop, Samba and raw funk numbers.
