Kicking off the JAWS newsfeed/blog

Well folks, this is our first attempt at setting up a news feed. 

After the 10 day Jazz festival in June and the JAWS summer school we needed a breather to collect our thoughts and push forward with our vision to bring great music to these isles.

Some of the events from our Winter Programme are now up on the website. There's the Michael Janisch gigs and phenomenal sextet of nationally and internationally renowned musicians. You can experience them up close and personal at Carnegie Hall in Sandwick on 2 October, or in a lunchtime brunch gig at Bixter Hall on 4 October before their Mareel electric gig.

Then there's THE BLOCKHEADS, the Mighty Blockheads, in a special gig for us at Mareel on 22 November. Early Bird tickets on sale now - buy early and save four quid.

The Christmas Buffet gig at the Town Hall this year is at Town Hall on 5 December. It features music from the wonderful Becc Sanderson and a fabulous quintet under the direction of Chris Grieve. Plus the legendary Christmas buffet feast. The best big night out you'll find for your office party or your works do and all in for just £35 a head.
