With Nova’s initial background in classical singing and Miro’s history as a punk musician, it took jazz to bring Nova and Miro together, creating a multi-genre duo- which funnily enough is neither classical nor punk!
With their combined love for jazz and rock music, the duo brings everything including light acoustic vibes, to upbeat jams, to the odd rock inspired headbanger.
Expect a mix of pop and jazzy covers as well as some rock and a couple of originals too.
Plus it’s HAPPY HOUR 5-6:30pm

Alligator Gumbo are a 7 piece New Orleans jazz band from Leeds, who have been playing together since 2011. Having played extensively around the country, and often packed out Matt & Phred’s, we can’t wait to see them again.
A gig with Alligator Gumbo sees jazz from the hey-day of the New Orleans swing/jazz era, when music was raw and largely improvised with melodies and solos happening simultaneously which has now become defined as the 'New Orleans' sound.
As well as the band’s unique and fast-tempo treatment of the classic tunes, Alligator Gumbo take this distinctive style and apply it to their arrangements of more modern and popular songs which everyone will recognise and happily head to the dance floor upon hearing.
