Laura Jurd – The Big Friendly Album x MJF (matinee)

Drawing inspiration from Celtic folk traditions, New Orleans street-beats and a sprinkling of alt-rock, Laura Jurd leads a group of world-class instrumentalists to bring this vibrant music to life. Expect big friendly tunes and grooves-a-plenty.

“A big hearted, gorgeously lyrical, feel-good romp, which does not preclude cerebral engagement but which wears its complexities so lightly that one barely notices them.” – Chris May, All About Jazz

Lineup:

Laura Jurd – cornet / piano
Iain Ballamy – tenor saxophone
James Kitchman – guitar
Ruth Goller – electric bass
Corrie Dick – drums
