Get ready for a swingin’ affair with saxophonist Fliss Gorst and band performing authentic swing, original tunes, and new takes on old classics. This evening’s gig features special guest Canadian jazz vocalist Lauren Bush. Fliss and Lauren have been working together on and off for a decade, they performed at Fliss’ monthly residency at Poppies in Camden for seven years. They’ve collaborated on shows at festivals & theatres across the UK as well as London venues such as Ronnie Scott’s & The Spice Of Life.

Their separate debut album launches (Lauren Bush ‘All My Treasures’ / The Fliss Gorst Band ‘The Place For Me’) both sold out Pizza Express Jazz Club in Soho. ‘All My Treasures’ gained critical acclaim and ‘The Place For Me’ reached number 6 in the jazz album charts. Lauren and Fliss are always excited to have the opportunity to work together, performing traditional swing repertoire, classic American songbook tunes & original arrangements and compositions. Expect a joyous evening of great music, fun and swingin’ tunes!
