Event information

Since his precocious arrival on the scene more than thirty years ago Alan has made over thirty albums as leader and co-leader alone, and the list of his session and side-man work includes Bjork, Bryan Ferry, Michel LeGrande, Clare Teale, Westlife, Jools Holland and Jamie Cullum. He has toured and played residencies with such diverse and demanding figures as Ruby Braff, Freddie Hubbard, Scott Hamilton, Warren Vache, Ken Peplowski, Harry Allen and Conte Candoli.

In British jazz, the young Barnes was recognized – and hired – by the established greats of the time: Stan Tracy, John Dankworth, Kenny Baker, Bob Wilber, and Humphrey Lyttelton. But he is equally respected for his longstanding and fruitful collaborations with contemporaries such as David Newton, Bruce Adams, and Martin Taylor.

Alan Barnes’s unique musicianship, indefatigable touring, and warm rapport with audiences have made him uniquely popular in British jazz. He has received over 25 British Jazz Awards, most recently in 2014 for clarinet, and has twice been made BBC Jazz Musician of the Year.

Blue Vanguard Jazz meets monthly on a Thursday in Matthews Hall, Fore Street, Topsham EX3 0HF.
Blue Vanguard Trio - Craig Milverton [keyboard], Al Swainger [bass] and Coach York [drums] bring the finest national and international guests to Topsham.

Doors are open from 7.15pm with performance times from 8pm – 10.30pm. Bar/refreshments available in Matthews Hall or nearby at No 3 Bar, The Old Fire Station Taphouse or The Nelson Inn.
