John Etheridge’s Sweet Chorus 'for Grappelli'

11sep8:00 pmJohn Etheridge’s Sweet Chorus 'for Grappelli'

Event Details

To kick off his residency, John brings the ever popular Sweet Chorus back to the club where they first performed in 1998. Conceived as a personal tribute to the great jazz violinist, Stephane Grappelli, with whom John worked extensively in the 70’s and early 80’s, the band has been touring and recording for 18 years. Based around the dazzling interplay between Etheridge and virtuoso violinist Chris Garrick, and backed up by the propulsive rhythm guitar of Dave Kelbie and Andy Crowdy’s nimble bass, the band evokes the essence of the Master without slavishly imitating the Hot Club sound, reflecting the spirit of freedom which characterised his musical expression.
