Join us for Friday Night Jazz at the Atrium Bar & Restaurant, President Hotel, Russell Square. On 17 July we are delighted to present the outstanding saxophonist Mark Lockheart, accompanied by Soner Ersen on piano, Andy Cleyndert on bass, and Eric Ford on drums.

Mark Lockheart is one of the UK’s most acclaimed jazz saxophonists and composers, known for his rich tenor sound, lyrical sensitivity, and adventurous approach to composition and improvisation. A long-standing figure on the British jazz scene, he has built a reputation for music that blends emotional depth with contemporary innovation.

He has performed with many leading ensembles and artists across the UK and Europe, and is widely respected for his work as both a bandleader and a key collaborator in groundbreaking modern jazz projects.

Together with an exceptional trio of musicians, he will present an evening of beautifully crafted original music, expressive improvisation, and dynamic interplay in an intimate and relaxed setting.

To enjoy the full experience of the evening, we recommend arriving from 7:30 PM to allow time to be seated, order your food, and settle in comfortably before the music begins at 8:00 PM. If you are planning to arrive after 8:00 PM, please email londonjazzstage@gmail.com in advance so we can note your arrival time and do our best to arrange a suitable table. Table seating is available for guests dining. Table reservations are subject to availability. Guests who are not dining are welcome to sit at tables if space is available; otherwise, they may be seated in the bar area.
