Event information

Bassist Simon Woolf (Bill le Sage, Bobby Wellins, Don Rendell) brings his "Young Masters" quartet to the Parakeet in a programme interspersing compositions by some of the jazz legends with whom he has played (Benny Golson, Harry Allen, Al Cohn) with his own tuneful originals.

“This band features some of the exceptional younger musicians I have particularly enjoyed meeting and playing with over the past couple of (post-Covid) years.
Donovan Haffner, recently graduated from the RAM, immediately impressed me with his beautiful tone and melodic gifts.
Fraser Urquhart, who moved down to London from Edinburgh a couple of years ago, shares my passion for Jimmy Rowles. Need I say more?
Joe Edwards, who has an engineering degree and hails from the South Coast, has a great beat, perfect dynamics and elephant ears.”
