If you've been to the Silvershine Jazz Club then you've probably seen Julius Fu, either working the PA or playing bass with The Blue Notes. This Thursday Jules is reuniting with a couple of musicians he played with back in the 1970s, Chantal Stewart and Julyan Richardson.
- Guitarist, Chantal Stewart, who now resides in France toured for three years with the black American R&B singer Lisa Doby based in Alsace, France.
Influenced by Joe Pass, Django and Jimi Hendrix, he was and is active in the Blues, Jazz and Soul music scene of Strasbourg for the last thirty years.
- Julyan Richardson plays Fender Rhodes
and lives in Southampton, playing solo gigs around the Southampton
area. He plays with The Southampton Jazz Society Big Band and featured
at Bracknell Jazz festival.
He has also played sessions with Pete Leigh and the Union blues band featured at the Bentworth Blues Festival.
- On drums is Tony Caldicott, a stalwart of the West Midlands Jazz scene, who Jules plays with at the Trumpet, Bilston on a regular basis.
A magical mix of musical styles from different places
& a first for the Silvershine Jazz Club

VIC EVANS
THE JAZZ MAN
a photograph by Paul Hassell
Surfing the internet I came across this wonderful photograph ov Vic Evans, the Blue Notes vocalist. It's a truly wonderful shot that truly captures the Vic we know and love, and looks more like a photo-realist drawing than a photograph - A work of art!
The
photographer, Paul Hassell, emailed us the photograph,
kindly giving us permission to upload it to our website.
