Queen's Head Music

SEAN TAYLOR at THE QUEENS HEAD,BELPER.DECEMBER 15th. £8. 8.00pm.

5/12/2018

Some people call him the new John Martyn; others find echoes of Tom Waits and J.J.Cale in his work. However Sean Taylor is simply the new Sean Taylor and an artist on an amazing trajectory.
Sean arrives in Belper fresh from an outstandingly successful UK and European tour with his latest album,the majestic 'Flood and Burn' still attracting plaudits. The Guardian describes him as 'the man to watch' and it's hard to argue with that. Sean regularly records in Austin Texas where they just might know a thing or two about blues rooted songwriters but on this occasion he will be accompanied by double bass player Mike Seal,one of many fine musicians with Belper connections.
No better way to enter the festive season than with a truly memorable gig.

Three percussionists with a unique vision. Coming from backgrounds of jazz, metal and free improvisation,George Grignon ,Walt Shaw and Greg Rawson combine seamlessly to create a new and distinctive music.
The name says it all evoking images of human skin,drum skins and the bones of the human body representing musical structures. Add to that vocals and dance grooves and it all suggests an innovative and unmissable evening.

SUNJAY at THE QUEENS HEAD,BELPER.November 16th. £8.Doors at 8.00pm.

Still very much in the vanguard of the UK folk blues scene while barely into his mid twenties,Sunjay has already packed more into his career than some artists achieve in a lifetime.
Returning to the club scene on the back of a tour playing the leading role in Buddy-surely the part he was born to play- Sunjay continues to channel folk and blues in his own inimitable manner.
However,the rock 'n roll influence is unmistakably there as evidenced by a storming finale medley rivalling the legendary Led Zep epic for virtuosity and intensity. For a taste of his more traditional performance check him out on Belper Music and Arts web page.

HITIRO.Jazz,rock and world fusion at The Queens Head,Belper.October 12th. £7. 8.00pm. A long time coming but worth the wait.

6/10/2018

Individually,Hitiro have been around for quite a while playing a diverse range of music before returning to their original love of jazz and jazz inflected rock. Since the halcyon days of Weather Report and Chick Corea,rock and jazz have entertained a long flirtation but in the case of Hitiro it is a consummate love affair which fuses a range of influences into a heady and eclectic mix.
This is their first live performance and has been a long time coming so a gig not to be missed. Incidentally,the name was originally meant to be hetero as in diverse but a typo resulted in Hitiro which is the title of a classic Japanese movie. Not a lot of people know that.
