Come and enjoy some popular swing tunes played by musicians with a real passion for this music. Fresh from a soldout gig at the Ludlow Assembly Rooms, the Almshouse Allstars are gaining an enthusiastic following with foot tapping, sing-along tunes that everyone knows. Their sets include familiar favourites from the 1930’s jazz age ranging from the gorgeous voice of Annie Summers singing ‘All of Me’ and ‘Night and Day’ to more raucous saxophone renditions by James Hunt of ‘Take the A Train’ and ‘I got Rhythm’. They’ll include some popular blues tunes including a lovely version of ‘Stormy Monday Blues’ by guitarist and band leader Murray Esplin and even the odd bass solo from Pudleston’s own Andy Offer.
“An evening full of well-known swing songs and tunes from the jazz age delivered by seasoned professionals who just love to entertain. A real feel-good factor fit for all ages.”
A perfect way to start the new Year.
