HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANDY

27th March is the Gig of the Decade

Andy and Scott at Andy Hamilton's 89th Birthday bash

On 27th March Scott Hamilton, seen above with Andy Hamilton will join him once again, this time for Andy's 90th Birthday Party! Also playing at the gig will be the best rhythm section in town, The Tony Richards Trio featuring international pianist John Patrick and the fabulous Tom Hill on Bass; and of course Andy Hamilton and The Blue Notes. Corks is always the place to be to celebrate Andy's Birthday, and we can promise you a night to remember.

Be there early to get a seat.

 

AND ’ES A JOLLY GOOD FELLOW

Andy receives his Fellowship

Following swiftly on the back of his MBE, Andy Hamilton has been awarded a "Fellowship of the Birmingham Conservatoire". If Andy continues to reap in awards at this rate he'll soon be running out of space to put them all.

You can find out more on the JazzWestMids website or in my NowPublic section.
