A festive evening of live music from North East Music Opportunities, with jazz, blues, soul and funk.
NEMO are bringing their winter holiday performance to The Fire Station on Tuesday 15 December, with the music starting at 19:30. It's a night put on by North East Music Opportunities, and the bill centres on the NEMO Groove Orchestra, a big band with vocal sessions. If you're not familiar with the name, NEMO is the North East Music Opportunities project, and this is their festive outing for the year.
The set draws from jazz, blues, soul and funk, so you'll get a fair bit of ground covered in one evening. The big band format means there's a full horn section behind the vocals, and the mix of styles lets them lean into the groovey side of things rather than sticking to one corner of the room. It's a festive evening of live music, and with those four genres in the mix, the set should pull from a broad range of sounds.

It's taking place at The Fire Station on High Street West in Sunderland, SR1 3HA. The music starts at 19:30, so it's a mid-week night that kicks off early enough to get home at a reasonable hour. If you're around the city centre that Tuesday, it's an easy one to drop into.
