The Filthy Six – Jazz, Funk and Boogaloo
16 April - 17 September
The Filthy Six
A night of hip-shakingly powerful jazz, funk and boogaloo
The Filthy Six are the most exciting, authentic soul jazz outfit in the UK today and have established themselves as one of the most electric live acts on the scene.
Their soaring horns, blistering guitar and gut-wrenching organ are fuelled by one of the hardest grooving rhythm sections around, producing a hip-shakingly powerful mix of jazz, funk and boogaloo, totally in keeping with the finest traditions of the late 60s Blue Note/Prestige sound.
Led by Trumpeter Nick Etwell (Tom Jones/Beck/David Axelrod/Mumford & Sons), this band of musical gunslingers have worked with some of the biggest names in music: Amy Winehouse, Mavis Staples, Ronnie Spector, Mark Ronson, Jack White, The Foo Fighters, Robbie Williams, Duran Duran, Madness, Chrissie Hynde and Noel Gallagher, among many others.
These instrumental groove merchants fuse boundless energy and musicianship to create tight, funky music for the mind, body and soul; guaranteed to move your feet and leave you wanting more!
“There are so many talented players in this band, they’re absolutely brilliant!” – Jamie Cullum, BBCRadio2
“A tasty soulful stew, designed to get London swinging again!” – Shindig! Magazine
“Back to their Filthy best with their mastery of that 60s Soul Jazz groove” – Craig Charles Funk & Soul Show, BBC6Music
Doors open from 7pm allowing you plenty of time to settle in, and enjoy some delicious food and drinks before the show starts at 8pm.
