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.

We don’t take advance table bookings M&P’s Early-Evening Gigs, just make sure you get down early to bagsy the best seats in the house!
Ayanam is a Nigerian singer but considers his "musical home" to be Manchester. He grew up in Nigeria but moved to the UK at the age of 16 and it's reflected in his musical style - taking inspiration from everyone from the Nsync to Outlandish to Paolo Nutini, and the Kooks - his musical taste is definitely "eclectic", but what he enjoys doing is taking songs from every genre and playing around with their conventions, turning the most bubble gum of pop songs into neo soul musings.
A lyricist at heart, having written poetry since 16, his raspy tone may remind you of passionate crooners like Rob Thomas and Paolo Nutini. Although most of his sets are covers. His original songs explore his struggles with anxiety as he finds it therapeutic.
In 2019, Ayanam was a member of Sir Tom Jones' team on The Voice UK getting as far as the knockouts. We think you’ll agree that this gig is set to be something very special indeed!
Plus, it’s HAPPY HOUR 5-6PM - that means buy 2 drinks and get a whole FREE PIZZA or get 2 house cocktails for just £15!

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).
Tollbar play 'Groove-jazz': jazzy sounds rooted in solid drum grooves.
It may want to be called 'jazz', but you'll hear sprinkles of calypso, Afro-Cuban, afrobeat, and reggae in the sets of original tunes written by band members and polished in endless jams and rehearsals.
Two saxophones take the lead (Nick Cavill alto and Stan Lewis tenor) with a solid rhythm section of vibraphone (Tony Korycki) guitar (Matt Birkett) double bass (Andy Brown) and drums (Jim Adnitt).
The band came together as all the musicians had played in numerous pop, funk, soul and covers bands around Manchester and beyond, but wanted to try something a bit different…
Don't expect chin-stroking serious jazz. You're going to get infectious grooves, jazzy sounds and a great vibe.
