Thorney Ex-Serviceman's Club

Hidden Jazz Spots & Local Bands

THIS EVENT IS IN THE PAST

Thorney Ex-Serviceman's Club has long been a venue for a great night out and this will be a new venue for me, but as the gig is being set-up by Dave Jackson I know it won't be disappointing!

  • Thorney Ex-Serviceman's Club - Friday 31st May 2025
    Starting at 6 pm
    Prepare for an extraordinary evening of jazz at Thorney's Ex-Servicemen's Club. Renowned drummer Dave Jackson has handpicked an outstanding quintet, featuring the soulful tenor sax of David Franklin, the vibrant trumpet of Alex Moore, the masterful piano of Ivan Garford, and the resonant double bass of Joel Humann—with Jackson himself on the drums. Together, these exceptional musicians promise a performance that will captivate and inspire, celebrating the very best of jazz.
