Event details

The return of the joyous, jazzy A Swinging Christmas show with the Chris Ingham Quintet featuring Joanna Eden (aka Jazz at the Movies).

This sublime seasonal jazz has been an annual sell-out for over a decade at Ronnie Scott’s, Pizza Jazz Club Soho, the Royal Albert Hall’s Elgar Room and concert halls throughout the UK. Featuring an ever-evolving festive repertoire delivering a feel-good stocking-full of 20th century holiday classics and curiosities, A Swinging Christmas is a unique blend of irreverence, poignancy and jazzy joy.

Featuring pianist/MC Chris Ingham (host of Bury’s legendary Jazz at the Hunter Club), acclaimed chanteuse Joanna Eden (longtime teacher/mentor to pop superstar Sam Smith), saxophonist/clarinettist Mark Crooks (world-class woodwind star of the renowned Sinfonia of London directed by John Wilson), bassist Joe Pettitt (musical director of the LP Swing Orchestra) and drummer George Double (Suffolk-based drum hero, crooner and matinee idol).

“One of the finest combos in the country and a seriously talented vocalist” - Jazz Journal

“Sassy vocalist and her swinging quartet deliver the goods…” - Jazzwise
