Jazz at Heart: DAVE MANINGTON’S RIFF RAFF

Doors 7pm Music from 7.15pm

“Riff Raff mix the leader’s clever composing with a formidable lineup, …and the soundscape embraces a 21st century sax-led cool school sound, raw guitar-fusion, diffident Wayne Shorteresque lyricism, and vocals that showcase Beraha’s eloquent lyrics and inventiveness as a wordless improviser.” The Guardian 

Dave’s Manington’s Riff Raff is a dynamic ensemble of musicians that features vocalist Brigitte Beraha (Kenny Wheeler, London Jazz Orchestra), pianist Ivo Neame (Phronesis, Marius Neset), saxophonist Tomas Challenger (Foufolah/Red Snapper), guitarist Rob Updegraff (Beth Rowley/Zigaboo Modeliste) and drummer Tim Giles (Iain Ballamy/Art Farmer). 

The music is intimate and creative, with a delicate interplay forged from many years performing together. Brigitte and Dave also recently received the honour of an Ivors nomination for best Jazz small group composition in 2022.
