We're back with a bang this new year!!!! We've got a killing band led by pianist and composer David Ferris, bringing some new music that is due to be recorded early this year! Come down to the Warehouse Cafe, listen to some amazing music, enjoy some incredible Vegan food and drinks served at The Warehouse Cafe!
Tickets are £5 online, £7 OTD.

This band was originally formed in October 2016 by pianist and composer David Ferris, featuring some of the Midlands’ best musicians. The music written for this band draws from his experience of playing in large fully-orchestrated groups, and smaller more improvised settings, and focuses on melody and warmth, with influences ranging from John Scofield to Fred Hersch to The Beatles. Currently the band are working on new material to be recorded on their second album in early 2023. This recording will feature the legendary New York guitarist Peter Bernstein asa special guest, and is due to be released on Stoney Lane Records in late 2023.

.....And we're back! For our next installment, we've got the Aidan Amann Trio, led by the amazing Aidan Amann on drums, with Nick Manz on piano and Ben Love on bass. They will be playing a set dedicated to the music of Esbjörn Svensson, one of the most influential figures in Scandinavian Jazz, and leader of EST (the Esbjörn Svensson Trio).
Now in his final year at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, Aidan Amann is a drummer and composer from the Midlands. He plays regularly with an array of prominent UK musicians, and was recently involved in a prestigious jazz/contemporary-classical project in Paris led by the internationally renowned composers John O'Gallagher and Sebastien Gaxie. His stylistic approach stems from his love of various genres of music, such as Irish Folk, Bebop and Modal Jazz, Funk, and Scandinavian Jazz. Influenced by the examples of people such as Esbjörn, Miles Davis and Brian Blade, he always aims to convey a sense of melody through his performance.
