The very popular Fergus Vickers Quartet returns to the Matt and Phred's stage!
Led by Fergus Vickers, one of the finest jazz guitarists in the North, the additional line up of tenor saxophone, double bass, and drums draw influence from the great guitar and tenor-led groups featured on albums such as The Bridge by Sonny Rollins, Kenny Burrell & John Coltrane, and Idle Moments by Grant Green.
For this laid back and all-round mesmerising gig, as well as playing some standards, you can expect to hear the band’s own interesting arrangements and original compositions, fuelled by interplay and immense musicianship, truly honouring the swinging music routed in the 1960s hard bop era.
The Line Up:
Fergus Vickers - Guitar
Will Howard - Tenor Saxophone
Elliot Roffe - Double Bass
Will Blackstone - Drums
