Twickenham Jazz Club - 6th October 2021

In recent weeks we have welcomed the return of Twickenham Jazz Club. Familiar faces once again grace the audience at The Cabbage Patch, and Lesley Christiane is our hostess of Jazz. The music has now moved to Wednesday nights, 7.30pm to 10.30pm (two sets 8-9pm & 9.30-10.30pm).

Julian Costello

Local favourite Julian Costello packed out the club on 6th October 2021 to play tunes (mostly) from his latest album Connections. Compositions that utilised the talents of Maciek Pysz on guitar were particularly well received by the audience. 

Dave Jones

Julian Costello Saxophonist / Composer / Educator lives in London with his crazy but lovely family of teenagers and he tries to approach life with humour.

Eric Ford

“Julian Costello is a sax lyricist, telling his stories of life’s ups and downs ... to impart strength, humour and even frailty” "There's a sense of graceful lyricism, combined with an inner strength, in the playing of tenor and soprano saxophonist Julian Costello........Costello's improvising is carefully crafted, beauifully structured, and mellow”, John Watson.
