For the first time at Sands by the Sea we’ve been able to book the phenomenal GEORGINA JACKSON; now nationally recognised as not only a phenomenal trumpeter (I’ll be listening in wonder!) but one of the greatest jazz singers in the world! As a lead trumpeter Georgina worked with famous faces including Frank Sinatra Junior, Nancy Sinatra and Seal before branching out as both player and jazz singer. She also features as singer with the Ronnie Scott Big Band and comes to us fresh from her top-of-the-bill appearance starring at Ronnie’s in November 2023 with her new salute to Sarah Vaughan ‘Sass and Brass!’ and featuring her ‘Mighty Mini-Big Band’. So do make sure you book early in order to get a table! The number is (01702) 468123 – call after 2pm – and, and as you know by now (I hope) the music is FREE, and so is the parking after 6pm on Southend sea front. Georgina will be joined by our fabulous Rat Pack Trio, featuring Tim Huskisson (piano) and Alan Clarke (drums) and of course we look forward to seeing you all!
