Something different, unique and exciting on the TJC stage this time. This live show is spellbinding, incorporating instrumental virtuosity and three-part vocal harmony, which adds a unique dimension to the sound — creating an uplifting take on infectious rhythms from Brazil and Cuba for the audience.

Neil Angilley Trio have released five albums — Yambou, Live at the 606, The Lake District, Havana Club and Chango.

The trio works regularly on the London jazz scene and across the UK, performing at prestigious venues including Ronnie Scott’s, The Stables and the 606 Club. During a recent tour in Italy, they appeared at the ‘Trieste Loves Jazz’ International Jazz Festival.

As an original member of Grammy-nominated band Down To The Bone, Neil has co-written and played on many of their No. 1 albums, most recently The Sweetness, which charted at No. 1 in the US Billboard Jazz/Funk charts. Neil has also appeared as a guest soloist on various albums, including An Ordinary Day in an Unusual Place (US3), Fuzzy Logic (David Benoit, GRP) and Crush (Richard Elliot, Verve).

As well as appearing on the main stage at Glastonbury with Dame Shirley Bassey, Neil has also performed with Vanessa-Mae, Maceo Parker, Lionel Richie, Lisa Stansfield and Three Friends (Gentle Giant), among many others.

“The crowd were captivated by the Neil Angilley Trio’s authentic Brazilian rhythms on top of rich vocal harmonies, segueing into staggering solo and group passages of virtuosity. Sensational.” — Ronnie Scott’s

★★★★★ Havana Club — “Album of the Week” — The Evening Standard

Chango — Voted Top Latin Album of the Year. “Chango will smite you…” — Mundo Latino

“Inventive.” — Observer
“Lyrical… impressively fluid.” — The Times
“Rhapsodic… with shrewd use of space and restraint.” — Guardian
