Live jazz from the Simon Savage Jazz Quartet, with a Sunday roast from Powell's Kitchen.
The Simon Savage Jazz Quartet play Barnaby's Lounge on Sunday 31 January, from 1:30pm to 3:30pm. It's a saxophone, piano, double bass and drums line-up, and the afternoon is paired with a proper Sunday roast from Powell's Kitchen, so it's as much about the food as the music.
The quartet brings together four musicians with a fair bit of mileage across the British jazz scene. On saxophone, Simon Savage draws on decades of work spanning jazz ensembles, big-band performances and West End productions. He's joined by double bassist Simon Thorpe, whose collaborations include Stacey Kent, Bobby Wellins and Alan Barnes, and by drummer Angus Bishop. Pianist Roy Hilton is an accomplished pianist, arranger and composer who has worked across film, theatre and broadcasting, and has performed alongside internationally recognised jazz musicians such as Sonny Stitt, Teddy Edwards and Bobby Shew.

Between them, they've played in a wide range of settings — from the West End and big bands to session work for film and theatre. It's a quartet with a lot of professional ground behind it, and the Sunday roast from Powell's Kitchen makes it a proper afternoon out rather than just a quick set. Booking a table is recommended, and there's a £10 contribution per person. The music runs from 1:30pm to 3:30pm at Barnaby's Lounge, 46 Robertson Street, Hastings, East Sussex TN34 1HL.
