FESTIVO with COCKTAILS SPONSORED BY APPLETON ESTATE RUM

We’re delighted to bring you a night of live music and discounted cocktails!

Thanks to our friends at Appleton Estate Rum we have a special menu of discounted rum cocktails available all night, priced at £10 each.

To accompany this, we have an exhilarating fusion of Caribbean, Latin jazz and Eastern European musical styles and rhythms. Festivo was formed by Dominic Grant and Frank Biddulph, the music reflects their background and interests. Dominic, an outstanding guitarist and composer of all the music on the album, is the son of a West Indian father (Cy Grant) and Czech mother, whilst Frank’s exuberant jazz violin style has strong Eastern European influences. Add the huge talents of steelpan player Mark Cherrie, and  we get a complex mix of melodic and rhythmic textures and adventurous flights of the imagination, creating music that is beautiful to listen to and dance to.

“A real combination of jazz, steel band sounds and Eastern European rhythms”
The Weekly Gleaner, The Top Caribbean Newspaper

 “Warm and innovative, a little gem of world music”
The Birmingham Post
