Leo Richardson one of HJC’s favourites, returns for another compelling show, featuring the iconic music releases on Impulse! Records with music from John Coltrane to Duke Ellington and more!
This crowd pleaser will be a sure sell-out so early booking is advisable!
Impulse! Records was established in 1960 by Creed Taylor, a forward thinking record label that later became known as “the house that Trane built“. Along with Blue Note, Impulse! Records was very well known for its aesthetic design and photographs, of course along with the seminal music releases that they continuously released.
Tonight the trio will be celebrating this music and paying homage to the greats including John Coltrane, Oliver Nelson, Duke Ellington, Sonny Rollins Stanley Turentine and Michael Brecker. Leo will be joined by organ maestro Liam Dunachie and the incomparable David Ingamells on drums.
