One of those nice occasions where, due to a last-minute cancellation, there's been an opportunity to put together a fantastic group of like-minded musicians who probably don't get to work together as often as they'd like. Always a scenario I relish...

A new one on me again, but it'll be nice to go back to Whalley Range. I haven't been since the gigs at The Hillary Step...

Three days at the mammoth Great Yorkshire Show - these are public gigs, but obviously you need a ticket to the event itself. We'll be on the President's Lawn bandstand throughout the day. Sarah and the others will be there on the Friday as well; just the three for me. This is my best guess at the personnel, but it might differ.

Day 2 at GYS.

Day 3 at GYS.

More information when we have it but, again, a lovely event that we all look forward to greatly.

Another relaxed evening of jazz-based tomfoolery at the good old Head of Steam. Always great fun here. 

Sam Dunn & Jamie Taylor (guitars)

After a similar (hugely enjoyable) jaunt a couple of years ago, my favourite jazz guitarist Mr. Dunn and myself are to engage on another assignment in the South East. Well, one little bit of it anyway. You can see France from most of these venues, so I'm going to advertise this on social media as a European tour...

Second night of the Kentish festivities...

Third night of duelling banjos. Love this venue, it's almost in the sea!

And the final round, an afternoon fixture at what looks like a lovely club. It isn't actually a Market Square from what I can gather, although it may well be near one...  

Jason Scott (piano), Jamie Taylor (guitar), Adrian Knowles (bass)

As we feared, The Cask is no more, but the club lives on at this new venue, I'm delighted to say. Keep in mind this is The Spa public house, not the big complex where the festival takes place. 

Judy Carmichael (piano), Jamie Taylor (guitar), Oliver Wilby (bass)

I don't have a lot of info about this one yet but, needless to say, I'm thrilled to be in the main room at one of the world's greatest jazz clubs, and in such incredible company. More details to follow...

Jason Scott (organ), Jamie Taylor (guitar), Paul Smith (drums)

Not the Maranello Trio, but two thirds of it, with the addition of drums, and Jason performing low-register duties himself...

Jason Scott (piano), Jamie Taylor (guitar), Adrian Knowles (bass)

I've had to miss a couple of trips to Zeff's in the last 18 months, both due to totally unavoidable circumstances, so I'm delighted that this one is in the diary. We had a great time when Maranello last played here.

Jason Scott (organ), Jamie Taylor (guitar), Paul Smith (drums)

Not certain about the full line-up for this, but myself and Mr. Scott will certainly feature... 

Jamil Sheriff (piano),  Jamie Taylor (guitar)

Jami and Jamie in their duo configuration again, in the rush hour jazz slot at Leeds' favourite jazz venue. 

Again, not much information about this one yet, but Kate's last big band project was an absolute joy to be part of, and I know this one will be the same. Last time we did it at Seven, I have a recollection of people sitting cross-legged on the floor down at the front, so don't leave it too late to book... 

Dave Walsh (drums), Martin Longhawn (organ), Jamie Taylor (guitar)

A first visit for me to this excellent, long-running Northern festival. Will be a joy to do...

Jason Scott (piano), Jamie Taylor (guitar), Adrian Knowles (bass)

After a very enjoyable rush hour jazz set last time, The Maranellos progress to the 7 Arts auditorium...

I was hoping we'd manage to get Maranello booked in at this great club, and we have. Can't wait!
