Summertime vibes with free live music in the orchard.
Manos Puestas Trio are a UK based group playing Gypsy Jazz, Be-bop, Latin and Rumba.
Armed with two guitars, rich vocals, and a grooving double bass, bringing a fresh twist to jazz classics. Drawing on years of experience across Europe’s top stages – including Montreux Jazz, WOMAD, and Glastonbury – they blend virtuosity with flair.
Re-interpreting jazz standards in a different style, Jon Lewis and Matt Sullivan play guitar with a Flamenco technique – that’s right, not a plectrum to be seen! This brings a unique feel to the tunes, particularly those of Django Reinhardt, Charlie Parker and Thelonious Monk.
In 2014, double bassist and vocalist Matt Watson (of Oxford’s Cuban big band Ran Kan Kan) joined the lineup, adding a vibrant Latin pulse. The result? A sound that’s full of improvisation, irresistible grooves, and upbeat, danceable rhythms that will have your feet moving and your soul singing.
