FRIDAY 26th JUNE 2026 NARK NIGHTINGALE (trombone)
After a gap of 10 years we are excited to welcome back the UK’s finest jazz trombonist, Mark Nightingale. With a vast discography and experience playing with everyone from Frank Sinatra to the Spice Girls, Nightingale was inspired by J.J. Johnson and the trombonists of the bop era. Mark is best known for leading and arranging for his own big band and adding depth and colour to the works of players like Alan Barnes, Andy Panayi and Claire Martin.
Mark Nightingale’s playing is”…always intricate, sometimes startling, even ribald at times….” but “Nightingale never takes the easy way out.” Peter Vacher, Jazzwise
Mark Nightingale will be performing with the Andy Urquhart Quartet
