Kieron Garrett Quartet
Posted by Johnny Copland in Live Clips on March 4, 2010
I was up playing at the excellent Stratford Upon Avon Jazz club with the Kieron Garrett Quartet at the weekend. Kieron’s just finished his debut album and we’re going to be out promoting it as much as possible in 2010. Haven’t seen any clips surfacing on youtube from Sunday yet, but for now here’s a clip of my solo on Kieron’s tune “Beans” from a gig we had back in 2009 featuring the great Dave O’Higgins on sax. Thanks also to football legend Dion Dublin for his amazing ‘Weather Report’ chat after the gig!

I’m on tour with the West End show ‘Thriller Live’ round Europe for the next two weeks. We took a night off to host a jazz gig and jam session in Budapest. Thanks to Adams parents for the awesome food and hospitality in Hungary… J

I’m about to fly over to Vienna to play bass on the “Thriller Live” Tour of the West End London show. You can’t beat a bit of Jacko and here’s one of my favourites to get me in the mood to learn his back catalogue. Written by another fav of mine, Stevie Wonder for Michael. RIP MJ!

Happy New Year! It’s so cold in London, I decided Donna Lee was the best way to try and thaw the frostbite off the digits…. Here’s some chords, walking, melody and a quick solo. J
Late Night Crystal Method Slap Fest

Driving home through London after a grooving gig, this tune came on in my car. When I got home I was feeling pumped so thought I’d freestyle some slap stuff over the top and see what happened!
