Free jazz and Latin classics from the Great American Songbook by Hull jazz vocalist Lyn Acton and guitarist Dan Edwards at Garbutts.
Lyn Acton and guitarist Dan Edwards play Garbutts on Tuesday 17 November, part of the Hull Jazz Festival. Acton takes the vocals, Edwards the guitar, and the set runs through a selection of jazz and Latin classics from the Great American Songbook.
Acton is a Hull legend and a stalwart of the Hull Jazz Festival, known for her technical prowess and versatility. She's fronted the East Yorkshire outfits Bossa Revista and her own Pearls Cab Ride, and this set draws on that same Latin and jazz territory. Edwards joins her on guitar, taking some time out from rhythm duties in the York-based Dire Straits tribute show Alchemy Live.
The night is hosted at Garbutts, 54 Princes Ave, HU5 3QG. It's a cornerstone of Princes Avenue now entering its twentieth year of trading, known for its warm atmosphere, eclectic events and a strong local community presence, including more than a decade of partnership with Hull FC. The performance is part of the Hull Jazz Festival, which brings together jazz acts across the city.
