Tris and the Tribe - Live at The Bedford

Tris and the Tribe play The Bedford on Tuesday 27 October, their first headline show at the Balham venue. They're supported by Tootawl, and the night is billed as one of soul, jazz and funk.

Tris and the Tribe is a London-based soul, funk and jazz band fronted by singer-songwriter Tris Puri. He started out as a solo artist and session guitarist before building a full sound around a rhythm section, a horn section and backing singers, mixing funk, soul and jazz with poppy hooks and guitar solos. The group has played some of London's most legendary rooms, including the Half Moon in Putney and the Camden Club, and has delivered several sold-out Sofar Sounds shows; Jazz FM has also featured them.

It's a Tuesday night in Balham, so if you're heading over from elsewhere in the city, you'll find The Bedford at 77 Bedford Hill, SW12 9HD. Doors open at 7:00pm and the music starts at 7:30pm, with Tootawl opening for the main set. Tickets are £5.50 for over-18s.
