The south London tour continues..!

We are back at the fantastic Crofton Park Tavern on Friday 8th March from about 8pm.  So head towards Crofton Park Tavern for a totally spondicious night of cool Blue Note style funky blues, jazz and boogaloo. 

A great evening guaranteed,. Good food, full range of drinks and a cool jazzy, bluesey vibe... In fact, much like this:

Special guest is Ghanaian sax legend Jimmy Beckley! See you there!
