Ginger Bakers Jazz Confusion at the Queens Theatre

14th June

GINGER BAKER'S JAZZ CONFUSION at The Queen's Theatre, Barnstaple on Friday 14th June 2013 at 19:45

APPROX RUNNING TIME: 2hours (inc. interval)

MINIMUM AGE RECOMMENDATION: 9

They once voted Ginger Baker as 'the musician least likely to survive the 60s'.

Now, four and a bit decades later, Ginger proved them all wrong, returned to the UK and formed a formidable quartet with funk and jazz giant Pee Wee Ellis, tenor sax, Alec Dankworth, bass, and Abass Dodoo, percussion.

The music is a healthy mix of Thelonius Monk, Wayne Shorter, Sonny Rollins, plus originals of Pee Wee Ellis and Mr. Baker, a challenging and fresh sounding program!

Ginger Baker and Ghanaian percussionist Abass Dodoo provide a perfect powerhouse of rhythms. After an extremely successful debut at Ronnie Scot's Club in London earlier this year, Ginger Baker's Jazz Confusion continues with shows throughout UK and is now ready to play their highly charged mix of jazz, fusion and African sounds in theatres in Europe and the Middle and Far East.

PRICE: All seats £18.00 NDT members/supporters £15.00 Student £8.00 Young Person £8.00
