Join us for a hugely special treat in the lead up to Christmas.

M&P’s has lined up the fantastic DG Kollective, a superb 17-piece Big Band, to make this festive season at our little club the best it can be, as well as showcasing a style of Jazz and Live Music we rarely get the opportunity to… (The band won’t even fit on our stage, so they’ll be down with the audience too!!).

Pundits are promised a great time with a mixture of Christmas classics, Big Band classics, Latin and vintage soundtracks.

The first set will see a section of the band performing all of our favourite Christmas tunes, then for sets two and three you can expect music from the likes of Henry Mancini, Stan Kenton, Lalo Schifrin, Tito Puente, Count Basie, and lots more classic Jazz and Latin classics.

DGKollective was founded in 2013 and is led by its director, Andrew Turnbull who is enthusiastic about encouraging players to join the rehearsals and be a part of the playing pool.

Andrew: 'Our rehearsals are fortnightly in Altrincham, Greater Manchester and players are welcome to join us. Our remit is to encourage and support those that need it as there are professional instrument teachers amongst us...and to prepare for professional level concerts and bookings.'

'The Matt and Phreds concert should be a thrill for anyone that wants to see and hear a big band up close.’
