JOHN STOWELL/JAMIE TAYLOR QUARTET
Sheffield Jazz, Crookes WMC, S10 1TD, 8pm

I could not be happier to welcome my good friend John Stowell to the North of England again - he is, as many of you will know, a truly world class and utterly unique guitarist. Add a rhythm section of this calibre, and I am in absolute dreamland. It also means a lot that we're doing the first of these shows at a venue that's geographically the closest to my front door - all back to mine for the hang! Click here for tickets.

The mid-week rush-hour slot at Leeds Jazz; why sit stationary on one of our broken motorways, when you could sit listening to the Maranello Trio instead?

Again, a new venue on me, that looks fantastic. Even better is the long overdue opportunity to reconnect on the bandstand with my old mate and longtime colleague Jamil Sheriff; without doubt one of the most significant creative voices on the Northern scene.

ALL STAR ALUMNI BIG BAND LEEDS CONSERVATOIRE 60TH ANNIVERSARY.
The Venue, Leeds Conservatoire, LS2 7PD, evening

This is going to be a very special occasion indeed. More details when I have them, but what I do know is that with Leeds legend Ronnie Bottomley providing the arrangements and a crack group of musicians from the last 60 years of LC, this will be a night to live long in the memory. I'm very honoured to have been asked.
