Davenham Theatre 59 Church Street CW9 8NF

Doors & Bar 7.30pm Gig at 8pm

Book by email [email protected] (NB that is the full address)

Tickets £12

Making a welcome return to Davenham, South African born Philip Clouts brings his quartet playing original compositions from his latest CD ` Umoya`. On this album, Clouts’ African inspirations extend beyond Cape jazz to pan-European folksong, soul-jazz and even drum ‘n’ bass.

Clouts was born in Cape Town and the music of his homeland has stayed with him as he has continued on a voyage of discovery that has led him across all five continents, soaking up Caribbean calypso and the soulful strains of the Indian subcontinent while honouring and learning from jazz heroes including Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett, and Charles Lloyd.
Since moving to Dorset in 2006 he has responded to his new surroundings with impressionistic compositions that complement and chime with his world music interests, resonating with folky themes and packing pungent rhythmical punch.

Samuel Eagles saxophones
