This evening we're excited to feature Aaron Liddard as he returns to Norwich with his critically-acclaimed 'Nylon Man' project.
Named after the three cities that most influenced Aaron (New York, London and Manchester) the 2022 album - "roughly 12 years in the making" - brought together a cast of 42 musicians from a diversity of genres and styles, including vocalist Carleen Anderson, violinist Omar Puente, trumpeter Yelfris Valdes and saxophonist / guitarist Harry Greene.
Performed this evening by Aaron's regular sextet of top performers, the newly-expanded set could be said to be genre-defying, but fuses funk, soul, Cuban and Brazilian styles with an over-arching jazz sensibility. Wherever they play, the band's seductive grooves and feel-good vibe never fail to win over their audience who are soon singing and clapping along.
“A Michael Brecker-like power and intensity... a highly uplifting experience” - Ian Mann, THE JAZZ MANN
“Liddard has a particularly broad and all-encompassing vision of music” - Dan Paton, LONDON JAZZ NEWS
Doors 6pm / Music from 7.30pm-10pm
Admission £18 (inc booking fee)
