It's the next Big Thing! Invite a lvoely, talented musician to your home, invite friends in (well, sell them tickets) have enough money to pay the artiste, and raise money for charity as well!
I read about it. Looked up How To Do It. Then invited a musician, arranged the date, told people about it..strange how some didn't believe me, laughed even..then last night I told C, seeing as he does live here, and J had said, 'Have you told Dad?' 'Er..no..' 'You're having a laugh...' Anyway, last night I told him and he didn't say no, just looked a bit bemused..'By the way, did I tell you, I'm having a concert in the living room, just a musician and 20 or 30 people, it'll be fine....'
So you read it here first!
Steve Lawson. In concert. In my Front Room. With food. And drink. Live music. For only £20. Friday 4th May at 7.30pm. Roll up, roll up! Only 25 tickets available...
A quote from Jazzwise:
Lawson's writing and his phenomenal command of the possibilities of looping creates a compelling and surprising variety of sounds one would never imagine the bass capable of producing.
