AND MILES TO GO

El Rincon · Bristol

A very especial one-off quartet in honour of what would have been Miles Davis’s 100th birthday year, with El Rincon’s very own ‘Pedro Promotions’ aka Pete Judge on trumpet duties, his Get The Blessing compadres Jake McMurchie & Jim Barr on tenor saxophone & double-bass respectively, plus The Invisible Apples’ mighty Jon Baggott on keyboards. Expect tunes from across Miles’s extraordinary decades of creativity, including a little sprinkling of appropriately Spanish flavourings.

BAGGOTT SMITH & JONES

El Rincon · Bristol

To call this trio a ‘supergroup’ is serious understatement! Mighty keyboardist Jon Baggott is joined by two members of El Rinc regulars Slate Trio: maverick guitar legend Neil Smith and dazzingly brilliant drummer Matt Jones. Between them, their musical CV encompasses Portishead, Massive Attack, Robert Plant, This Is The Kit, The Brackish, Zun Zun Egui, The Liftmen, The Invisible Apples, Free Four, and many others. Expect a choice mix of jazz and groove standards, plus some original compositions, and just general top-class musicianship. As El Jefe would say: “Mint”.

DE ANIMA

El Rincon · Bristol

Brand new trio about which we are very excited. Bristol-based De Anima play “prog-& jazz-inflected ‘alt rock’, singing stories that explore intimate interactions, real life events and politics, often sourcing lyrics verbatim from unusual places” - but that description doesn’t really do justice to their beautifully unusual sound and harmony-laden vocals. They are guitarist/singer Jojo Holmes, drummer Matt Jones (see Nov 12th!), and bassist/singer Jen Bell. Check out their videos at www.de-anima.uk and then snap up your tickets!

El Rincon · Bristol

What a storming return to live music at your favourite little bar in prospect here! This is a masterful collaboration between two stalwarts of the Bristol music scene: Keith Warmington (local legend, guitarist, harmonica-player, singer, Radio Bristol presenter, and all-round polymath) is joined by Graham Nicholls, a guitarist of jaw-dropping ability. Expect originals, blues and Americana, delivered with panache, wit and authority. Don’t miss.

HDIF Children's Disco Halloween Party

The Phoenix Club · London

Date change! This is now happening on Halloween itself - Saturday October 31st! A Halloween edition of our all-ages daytime disco! Come and dance to indie pop, northern soul, and Motown, with some spooky gems and graveyard smashes thrown in for good measure. And, of course, if you feel like dressing up, then please do! Come and rattle your bones to "There's A Ghost In My House". "Monster Mash", and lots lots more! We've held the HDIF Children's disco at the End Of The Road festival since 2011, and they've been lots and lots of fun. We play our usual mixture of indie pop and soul, and the discos are a wonderful opportunity for kids to bop around to Belle & Sebastian, Allo Darlin', Ramones, Pixies and more, and for their parents to bop along with them. It can often be hard to get out to club nights once you become a parent, so these discos are as much a chance for the parents to go out dancing as they are for the kids. We also want to provide an alternative to the many rave-themed kids discos that are on offer in London. If you'd rather dance to your favourite indie pop and Motown songs with your children, then we're the disco for you! Music will be played at a reasonable level. We'l...
