Calstock Jazz & Blues Festival

After the resounding success of the 2012 Festival we are delighted to bring you news of the 2013 Festival, which will be taking place from Friday 25 – Sunday 27 October.

All three headliners have now been announced – the Jacqui Dankworth Trio will be playing in the Old Chapel on Saturday 26 October, and on Sunday 27 October, also in the Old Chapel, Jean Toussaint and two of the late Abram Wilson’s critically acclaimed young rhythm section, plus Jean Toussaint’s regular bass player, present ‘Saxophone Giants: A Tribute to Jazz’s Greatest Saxophonists’.

Meanwhile, the opening gig on Friday 25th October in the Old Chapel is a little different: up and coming young trumpeter Matthew Halsall is visiting us with his quintet, which includes a full-size classical harp!

Tickets for all these events are now on sale.

There will also be jazz and blues events in every other venue in the village, including workshops for all ages, a gospel choir, rhythm ‘n’ blues and swing bands, blues soloists, dancers, stalls, excellent catering including jazz cream teas – and much much more.
