Hedsor Jazz, The Weeks Ahead!

Below is a listing of our planned events for the coming few weeks. The past has prepared us for sudden cessations, covid is still amongst us, and who can tell what the government might decide about future social events? So, whilst it IS still legal to “party”, at the very least we plan to “JAZZ” at Hedsor.

HEDSOR JAZZ IS EVERY THURSDAY and starts at 8.30pm. Entry fee is £10. It is held at The Hedsor Bar (aka The Hedsor Social Club) Hedsor Rd, Bourne End SL8 5ES

December 15th  Hedsor Jazz’s Christmas Party + ??? lots!

The musical style at Hedsor Jazz is “Modern Jazz”. Most of our musicians are well know in the music industry, some are very well known! Since restarting live jazz in May 2021 after the covid gap they have all become very well know to us at Hedsor Jazz.

Hedsor Jazz provides music of the highest quality and the punters are all friendly! We have been running live jazz at Hedsor every Thursday possible since 2002. Hedsor Bar offers some free parking, and the drinks are at club, not pub, prices. If you become a member of the Social Club itself, the drinks become even cheaper! Why not give Hedsor Jazz a try

Last week was hit by accident and ill health, but Al Nicholls on tenor played magnificently throughout the evening, initially with only Nigel Fox on keyboard and Peter Hughes bass and braces to take the strain! 

One of the accidents was my camera, so only 2 photos survive and they are below! Martin did eventually get his drums set up, and by the third tune in, was playing! BUT not photographed!
