Loose Tubes, Ronnie Scott's

24 Sep 15 – 26 Sep 15, 7:00 PM – 12:00 AM

The reformation of the Loose Tubes jazz group live at Ronnie Scott's  in September should not be missed

Seminal British big band Loose Tubes are back in residence at Ronnie Scott’s performing old favourites, among them Like Life, Yellow Hill and Säd Afrika, along with gloriously scatterbrained new compositions commissioned by the BBC.
The band’s anarchic, genre-defying sound was a formative influence on British jazz in the 1980s and when they parted ways in 1990 they had already spawned legions of imitators.
Members, including pianist Django Bates, saxophonists Julian Argüelles, Iain Ballamy and Mark Lockheart and trumpeter Chris Batchelor went on to lead influential projects of their own, but the band reformed last year to mark their 30th anniversary, with a week long run at Ronnie Scott’s and performances at Cheltenham and Brecon jazz festivals.
Their set at the Gateshead International Jazz Festival earlier this year proved that they’ve lost none of their eccentric energy, and when they’re packed onto an intimate jazz club stage the atmosphere should be even better. For a night of inspiring music and an insight into British jazz history this Loose Tubes London gig is a must see.

    What the critics say

    JAZZWISE

    “Less a breath of fresh air and more a musical hurricane”

    Thomas Rees

    THE TELEGRAPH

    “They may be older but 21-piece band Loose Tubes are as joyously unpredictable and exuberantly eclectic as ever”

    Ivan Hewett

    Practical

    VENUE

    The UK’s best known jazz club, Ronnie Scott’s in Soho is decked out like US venues of old, with plush seating, booths and brass rails. A must for any music fan, it’s the perfect setting in which to watch the great and good of the jazz world do their stuff.

    As you’d expect from a Jazz Club of its calibre, Ronnie Scott’s keeps a well stocked bar and does an excellent line in cocktails. The espresso martini is legendary and a godsend in the early hours of the morning.

    Set in a three-tiered, Grade II-listed pub dating back to 1739, The Blue Posts has a members’ club-meets-traditional-boozer vibe, appealing to those who want to belong to the Soho House set but can’t afford, or don’t fancy paying, the membership fees. The Blue Posts isn’t actually private, but feels it.
