Jazz on a Wednesday night downstairs in the cool basement cellar at Ryan's bar in funky Stoke Newington.
Classic jazz, Latin vibes, mambo grooves and lounge tunes from the vinyl collection of retro dj Jeniffer Jackson. Enjoy the sounds of some of the greatest names in jazz: Jimmy Smith, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Jon Hendricks, Nina Simone, Frank Sinatra and more.
The Jazz Department captures that laid back beatnik vibe of the 50's 60's basement jazz clubs of Soho, Paris, LA and New York. Remember Audrey Hepburn in Funny Face, or Leslie Caron in American in Paris or the club scenes in Bell Book and Candle or The Subterraneans or Paris Blues? The list is endless. Music from a time when jazz WAS cool. With great live music from John Drain.
Dress beatnik, mod, 50’s & 60’s, cool, retro, vintage or smart, glamour or use films La Dolce Vita, Bell Book and Candle for your inspiration.
See you in The Jazz Department open for business on the first Wednesday of the month.
