M&P x MJF Jazz Jam, led by Johnny Hunter

Matt and Phreds

For this extra special Jam Night, Matt & Phred’s are teaming up with manchester jazz festival to give all singers and musicians the opportunity to get on M&P’s stage to perform. We are happy to announce that this year’s Jazz Jam will be led by the prolific drummer and artist Johnny Hunter, whose band is comprised of equally reputable musicians. The stage is open to all musicians to get up and play with the house band and fellow jammers. 

This is a unique experience to come together with others to perform some classic Jazz, be it a ‘standard’ or something more modern, whilst showing the rest of the performers and audience your approach to improvisation. Bring along your vocal cords, guitars, brass, strings, and whatever other instruments you play, and play alongside like-minded music lovers.

Over the years, the Matt & Phred’s Jam Nights have attracted the likes of Chuck Perkins, Lonnie Liston Smith, Benn Clatworthy, members of Riot Jazz Brass Band, GoGo Penguin, and Beats & Pieces… Who knows who might be in the audience and on stage tonight? You can certainly expect to see some familiar faces from the rest of the manchester jazz festival line up, as well as those who have built a stellar reputation among the Northern music scene. 

More of a listener than a player? No problem, there will be plenty of room for you to kick back and watch the evening unfold. It’s fair to say anything could happen.
