Spend your Saturday afternoon in style with live jazz and a curated brunch pizza menu at Matt & Phred's.

Join us for our Jazz Brunch, featuring the spectacular Ed Kainyek Quintet performing classic swinging melodies from the Great American Songbook. Timeless, melodic, and guaranteed to get your toes tapping.

Ed Kainyek is a prolific saxophonist based in Manchester, with a long and varied career in jazz and education, who has performed at countless venues and festivals around the world. Ed’s repertoire spans traditional jazz standards, contemporary jazz, and even relaxed ambient sets. Whether leading his own band, jamming with fellow musicians, or teaching the next generation, Ed Kainyek stands as a dedicated and skilled figure in Manchester’s jazz and live music community.

Today, Ed is joined by Trish Heenan (vocals), Al Scott (piano), John Sandham (bass) and Rick Weedon (drums). Expect two fantastic one-hour sets mixing vocal-led tunes and instrumentals, all guaranteed to leave you in awe of this mighty line up.

Accompanying the live jazz is a tasty brunch pizza menu. Enjoy brunch favourites given a pizza twist, from Meaty, to Shakshuka, to Smoked Salmon, and more.

With a central city location, swinging live jazz, and a unique brunch menu, this truly is an experience like no other. Book early; space is limited to keep the experience intimate!

Saturday 7th February 2026
Doors: 5pm / Gig: 7-8:45pm
Happy Hour: 5-6pm

BOOK A VIP STAGE-SIDE TABLE (£7pp)

BOOK AN ENTRANCE-SIDE TABLE (£5pp)

Booking a table is recommended, but you can just turn up if you’re happy standing (free). For bookings of 9+ guests, or if you’d prefer a phone reservation, call 0161 273 5495 (10am-5pm Mon-Fri) / 0161 831 7002 (5-11pm Mon-Sat).

As one of the UK’s leading original covers acts, the Gypsies of Bohemia Trio pride themselves on having written at least half of their complete catalogue of original cover versions. Something of a paradox? Well, that sums these guys up. This tight-knit trio of musically literate, well-groomed individuals can bring a party like no other, with their inventive and superbly crafted renditions of popular contemporary songs from the modern era.

Fronted by the phenomenal vocalist Martin Connor, and driven by Jim Wallace on guitar and Andrzej Baranek on piano, expect all your all-time guilty-pleasure bangers given the gypsy treatment… A mix of classic gypsy jazz and popular covers twisted into something unmistakably theirs.

Here’s an idea what to expect from the gig. Please note that this will be a trio performance (not the full band shown here):

BOOK AN ENTRANCE-SIDE TABLE (£7pp)

Booking a table is recommended, but you can just turn up if you’re happy standing (free). For bookings of 9+ guests, or if you’d prefer a phone reservation, call 0161 273 5495 (10am-5pm Mon-Fri) / 0161 831 7002 (5-11pm Mon-Sat).

Taking inspiration from New Orleans brass bands, Knock Out Brass Band put a spin on all those modern classics to bring sensational upbeat covers, like you've never heard!

For over a decade KOBB musicians have been heard in every corner of the UK and the world. Performing at festivals, functions and events, including Glastonbury, SXSW and French Quarter Festival (New Orleans) or on tours around America, China and Europe, and in venues such as Ronnie Scotts, O2 Arena and the West End. Individually, some of the best players and together make an extremely exciting, professional and experienced ensemble!

Made up of a groovy sousaphone, hard hitting drum beats, a couple of trumpets and trombones, the band is capable of playing a big range of genres from rock, funk and pop to traditional second-line New Orleans processions!

*VIP Stage-Side Tables: Here you have the best experience of the band, plus full table service. Please note that on Friday/Saturday nights, there is a dance floor in between the VIP tables and the stage, so you may have people dancing in front of you (you can’t blame them!)
