Friday 2 June
Jack Mac’s Funk Pack performing in St Margaret’s Hall from 7.30pm.
Jack Mac has been playing music professionally for over a decade now, and has collaborated with some of the UK’s and US’s finest up and coming musicians. Heavily influenced by the styles of New Orleans jazz and funk groups such as Dr John, Jon Cleary and Galactic, Jack Mac is also an admirer of the sounds of saxophonists Coleman Hawkins and Sonny Rollins, and jazz fusion groups The Headhunters and the Brecker Brothers. The end result is a melting pot of musical genres that keeps every gig fresh and alive so no two performances are ever the same.
Tickets for Jack Mac’s Funk Pack are available through Wiltshire Music Centre.

An evening of live jazz awaits…
Bring a picnic blanket and spend a lazy summer evening on the Croquet lawn, sat amongst the towering Redwood trees, listening to the soulful sounds of the Louise Parker Quartet supported by Beetroot Jazz.
About Louise Parker: Growing up in a house filled with music, from the folk, calypso and opera enjoyed by her Jamaican born mother to the trad, swing and be-bop from her jazz-obsessed father, vocalist Louise Parker, aptly named after Louis Armstrong, was born to create the sort of soulful sound that is earning her a great reputation in the jazz world.
Sunday 4 June, 7pm – 10pm
The Croquet Lawn, The Hall, Kingston Road, Bradford on Avon
£15 per adult | £5 per child
