Join us for Friday Night Jazz at the Atrium Bar & Restaurant, President Hotel, Russell Square. On 6 November, we are delighted to present acclaimed guitarist Mike Outram, accompanied by Soner Ersen (piano), Andy Cleyndert (bass), and Eric Ford (drums).

Mike Outram is one of the UK's leading jazz guitarists, widely admired for his exceptional technique, expressive improvisation, and stylistic versatility. He has built an outstanding international reputation through performances across Europe, North America, Asia, Australia and Africa. Throughout his distinguished career, Mike has collaborated with an impressive range of artists including Herbie Hancock, Joe Lovano, John Scofield, Stanley Turrentine, George Russell, Peter King, Julian Arguelles and Jacqui Dankworth. Alongside his performing career, he is a highly respected educator and has taught jazz guitar at the Royal Academy of Music, Guildhall School of Music & Drama, and Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance. Equally at home as a performer, composer and educator, he is recognised as one of Britain's most accomplished and respected jazz musicians.

Together, they will present an evening of beautifully interpreted jazz standards, swinging grooves, and inspired improvisation, highlighting Mike's lyrical approach, inventive harmonic language, and outstanding musicianship.

To enjoy the full experience of the evening, we recommend arriving before 7:30 PM to allow time to be seated, order your food and drinks, and settle in comfortably before the music begins at 8:00 PM.

If you expect 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 suitable seating.
