A big welcome to June’s superstar guest, the amazing Nicola Farnon, wonderful vocalist and double bassist. Nicola will be taking us on a journey to explore a mix of jazz classics, standards and original compositions, with the inspirational fusion of vocals and deeply crafted musicianship on the double bass. One of those rare artists, like Esperanza Spalding, who create beautiful harmonic figures on the double bass, while singing joyfully along with their own accompaniment, we are very excited to welcome Nicola to Smokey Joe’s.
Nicola has played and recorded with jazz luminaries including Dave Newton, Digby Fairweather, Jim Mullen, Steve Brown, Bruce Adams and Alan Barnes, and has appeared alongside class jazz acts as diverse as Eliane Elias, Courtney Pine, Georgie Fame, Tony Kofi, the Michael Garrick Jazz Britannia Orchestra, Sir John Dankworth, Dame Cleo Laine, Humphrey Lyttleton and Acker Bilk.
Nicola joins with the Smokey Joe’s awesome jazz house team, with the barefoot energy, flying socks and passion of Alex Steele on piano, and the mighty groove merchant, Mike Cypher on drums, always ready to snatch the unexpected beats and turn them into unrivalled rhythmical joy!
We’re looking forward to seeing you there!
