Newley Night 3

It's hard to describe what this night is!
It's a celebration of our old friend Tony Newley.
You will leave with a smile and full up like you have eaten the best meal you ever had!
One thing for sure you will leave singing, and full of love
Susie xx

APPEARING: GAVIN LAZARUS
When he's not fronting his sellout 20th Century Foxes cabaret shows, UK vocalist Gavin Lazarus is earns his living on the swing and jazz circuit, entertaining public, private, theatre and corporate audiences night after night with his unique blend of jazz standards, storming blues, vintage rock 'n roll and soaring stage and screen numbers backed by his stellar quartet.
As frontman of swing-era cabaret 20th Century Foxes, he hosts the South-West's only Anthony Newley tribute show, Newley Discovered two glorious hours of Newley's music, featuring up to seven vocalists and Foxes' storming five-piece band.

APPEARING: BOBBY GRINDROD
Versatile Bobby can usually be found fronting guitar-based bands and indeed, an early 45 garnered four and a half stars from Rolling Stone magazine. However, his vocal stylings owe less to rock 'n' roll and more to the rich tradition of popular song that Anthony Newley was a master of.

As frontman of erstwhile 'swingdie' pioneers, 'Friends of The Bride', he was described by The Times as "heading the nu-croon scene" and was known for his sharp, 1960s dress sense. Time Out reckoned he supplied "the silkiest vocals this side of Soho" and Soundsxp.com hailed him as "indiepop's greatest voice". Metro were quick to follow suit, devoting an entire page to Bobby and proclaiming that Friends of The Bride were "the hippest band in town"

APPEARING: STEVE FURST
* West End super star (Matilda)
* Comedian - straight from a sell out show at St.James' Theatre dedicated to our Mr.Newley!
* Telly star
* Movie star
* Third year running compere at Newley Night.

Who is Steve? "Furstly" he is our friend!

APPEARING: CLIFFORD SLAPPER
Our piano man of Soho...
I think it would be easier to ask who Cliff hasn't accompanied! He has recently wrote a book on Mike Garson, Bowie's pianist, and while we are name dropping, Clifford has played for the great man himself. So we have a real Newley connection!

We are proud for the third running to have Clifford as our MD.
