Come along, bring your own food and drinks and listen to music from Let The Bird Out Duo and Andy Lawrenson Trio
Let the Bird Out are a vocals and electric guitar duo working in the jazz idiom, but also covering swing, blues, folk, pop, Latin, rock, and contemporary styles. The duo are Bev Wright (vocals) and Brian McGrail (guitar). They are based in Edinburgh, Scotland, and have vast experience of live performance at various kinds of events, including birthday and retirement parties, weddings, celebration and annual dinners, art exhibition viewings / corporate events, charity fundraisers, as well as playing in numerous music venues.
The Andy Lawrenson Trio has been working since around 2012 Andy Lawrenson learned to play the violin through busking on the streets of Europe, Scandinavia, England, Scotland and Ireland, before returning to University of Northumbria to complete a music degree in the mid 1980s. He was a prominent figure on the North East Folk and Jazz scene, working with Ian Carr, Keith Morris, Elvis Costello, Richard Thompson, and the North East folk music agency Folkworks amongst others.
Simon OByrne has been a professional guitarist for over two decades. His accomplished guitar playing celebrates the style and swing of the jazz-genius Django Reinhardt, mixed with a flamenco flourish and echoes of the great Paco de Lucia.
Paul Grainger started playing the double bass comparatively late in the day yet has quickly become an in-demand player on the North East scene and further afield.
He has worked with, among others, Anita Wardell, Tessa Souter, James Birkett, Daniel John Martin, George MacDonald and Alice Grace. He is also a founder of, and resident bass player for the highly regarded Newcastle based Jazz Cafe Jam Sessions.
