Broadhempston Village Hall

Can anyone please help with future jazz events at the Hall?

We’re looking for someone who can put in a few hours helping to make this regular village event keep on happening.

Tasks can include ..,

- helping with publicity (posters, leaflets, social media etc)
- helping set up the hall on the evening and clearing up after
- helping run the bar

There’s nothing very arduous, we just need occasional help to make sure we can keep putting on these increasingly popular events. Everything is voluntary and any profits we make, after paying the musicians, goes to the Hall.

We specially need help for our fifth anniversary gig which is on 18th September. It’s Simon Spillett, internationally renowned tenor sax player, who played at our first gig 5 years ago.

Please message me or comment on this post if you’re interested and I’ll get back to you.

With less than two weeks to go, tickets for La Vie en Rose, at Broadhempston Village Hall, are selling out fast - don’t miss out - book yours now!

Based in Exeter, these outstanding musicians have wide-ranging individual backgrounds in classical music, traditional jazz, rock, blues, country, ragtime and roots, all drawn together by the shared pleasure of playing gypsy jazz and hot swing.

The band has performed to critical acclaim at festivals such as Dart Music Festival, Upton Jazz, Bude Jazz, Jazz Jurassica, Budleigh Music Festival, and to sell-out audiences at numerous arts centres including Bridport, TCAT, Ilminster, Taunton CIC, jazz clubs and for three years running at The Royal Albert Hall's 'Verdi Italian Kitchen' for their prestigious Valentine's Day event.

They have built a reputation for their mix of ‘Hotclub’ favourites, jazz standards, soulful ballads, Latin swing, the occasional film theme and classical score! Toe-tapping rhythms and virtuoso melody lines combine in a performance with a verve and joy that makes this music irresistible.

Very simply, it’s just about having a really good time!

“We loved having you - absolutely brilliant performance!” Jazz Jurassica
“A great performance. We hope to have you to play again soon!” Tiverton Community Arts Theatre
“…a joyously uplifting afternoon at the Festival. We loved having you with us.” Budleigh Music Festival
“…this is a rare treat. This lot are magnificent.” Danny Gladstone, ‘The Glad’, London SE1.
