Live soul and R&B show by British singer-songwriter Joel Culpepper at the Blue Note Jazz Club.
Joel Culpepper plays the Blue Note Jazz Club on Wednesday 23 December, with the show starting at 9:30pm. It's a late one, falling just a couple of days before Christmas, so it works as a mid-week night out if you're staying in London over the break.
Culpepper is a British soul and R&B singer and performer, and the sound he works with stretches across pop, electronic, contemporary UK R&B and neo-soul. He's billed as a soulful singer-songwriter, and that's a fair summary of what you'll hear — it's R&B at its core, but it pulls in elements from pop and electronic music, so it doesn't sit in one particular box. If you're into the more contemporary side of the UK soul scene, this is right in that territory.
He's spent a good deal of time playing support for artists like Alabama Shakes and Tom Misch, and has appeared at festivals including the Love Supreme Jazz Festival at Glynde Place and Mad Cool in Madrid. This is a headline show, so it's his name on the bill rather than a supporting slot. The Blue Note is a jazz club, and while his sound leans towards R&B and soul, that's a natural fit for a room that centres on live performance.
