Wednesday November 26th, 8pm : TIGGY BLACKWELL QUINTET @THE SWIGG

Swansea Jazz Club @THE SWIGG SA1

The Tiggy Blackwell Quintet are a fantastic new group of young musicians based in Cardiff!

The group was founded by Tiggy Blackwell, a jazz trombonist graduate of the RWCMD for their inaugural gig at Brecon Jazz Club which sought critical acclaim.

The pieces explore some of the work of the finest jazz trombonists such as Curtis Fuller, Kai Winding and J.J. Johnson, alongside the band’s favourite tunes. The band features several excellent players from the Cardiff scene, all of whom featured in the Swansea International Jazz Festival with bands such as Calathea, Evan Extence Quartet, Charlie Herbert Organ Trio and the Power of Gower Big Band.

This night is sure to be an unforgettable night of Jazz in the Swigg!
