Adrian Cox and the Chris Ingham Quartet with RHS Big Band
About
Adrian Cox, arguably the UK’s leading New Orleans-style clarinettist, began playing at the age of six and was performing professionally by the time he was fifteen. His early career saw him gigging not only in jazz, but also in blues, funk and ska, collaborating with artists such as Paloma Faith, Maceo Parker and ska legends Bad Manners. However, his love of jazz eventually led him to Kansas Smitty’s, the UK-based jazz collective led by American saxophonist Giacomo Smith. The group’s popularity earned them the title “London’s New Swing Princes” from the Evening Standard, and they were invited to perform with Wynton Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra in both London and New York.Join Adrian, the Chris Ingham Quartet, the RHS Big Band, and guest singers from RHS’s own “Rat Pack” for an evening of swinging entertainment and fun.
The bar will be open from 6.30pm and again during the interval.
