Posted by favethingsjazz in : gig, news , 1 comment so far
On the 9th May, we’ll be packing our instruments (and records) and heading out to East End of London for a Sunday evening of funky jazz fusion and Latin inspired standards at one of Brick Lane’s most celebrated musical institution’s, Vibe Bar.
Host and saxophone player extraordinaire Jake Telford will be joined on stage by Aaron Ottignon on keys, Francesco Mendolia on drums and a variety of other members of the Favourite Things collective plus guests, as they run through their catalogue of improvised jazz classics.
On the decks during the band intervals will be resident DJ’s Nik Weston (Mukatsuku Records) & Rob Coley (Soul Identity Music), playing a unique blend of jazz, soul, funk and boogie.
Hope to see you there.

Posted by favethingsjazz in : audio, podcast , add a commentMukatsuku Records boss and Favourite Things resident DJ Nik Weston returns to the turntables to provide this week’s podcast business. Expect a nice assortment of leftfied jazzy breaks, soul and boogie 45s and of course the straight ahead jazz we all know and love. Still working on getting the live jazz jam rehoused somewhere nice in London. Just need to find that great spot that will do it justice. Please bear with us. More news soon come. In the meantime, please enjoy this 45 minute mini mix from one of London’s finest selectors.
