Event Description

PART OF EFG LONDON JAZZ FESTIVAL 2022!

Legendary guitarist John Etheridge joins forces with the sensational vocals of Vimala Rowe. Together, they weave a magical spell, effortlessly travelling musically from India to Africa, Middle East and the USA.

John Etheridge has had substantial relationships during his 45 year career with some of the most famous names of 20th century music including Stephane Grappelli, Nigel Kennedy, John Williams, Yehudi Menuhin and Soft Machine.

Vimala Rowe has been gaining plaudits wherever she goes. An exemplary jazz singer with a faultless and deft expression, Rowe has a unique style that compliments John’s explorative nature. She featured recently in Paco Pena’s Flamencura at Sadler’s Wells: an indication of the breadth of her talent.

They weave together a magical journey that takes the audience across continents. There will also be solos from John, taken from his celebrated show that he has performed for 10 years all over Europe. This is a unique pairing that satisfies on so many levels. Not to be missed.

Their album ‘Out of the Sky ‘ was elected in the Top Ten critic’s choice of album of the year 2016 in both the Guardian and the Sunday Times, the track ‘Detour Ahead ‘in the Top Five in the Guardian .

Both John and Vimala will be showcasing originals from their respective new releases 2022.
