At the Silvershine Jazz
Club we aim to bring you some of the best Jazz from the
West Midlands, the UK and overseas, whilst also using
our Jazz nights to bring on new talent from in and
around the area. In so doing we hope to maintain the
ethos and the standards set by Andy Hamilton MBE, the man who
first brought Jazz to Bearwood Corks Club.

The Silvershine Jazz Club was packed to the rafters for the Xhosa Cole gig and there was a wonderful vibe throughout the evening. Xhosa joined the Blue Notes to play the music of Andy Hamilton along with some younger musicians on the way up. Also there was an interval set from the ever-so-young Outer Circle. The future of Brummy Jazz looks very bright indeed.
Below is a slideshow of photos that Brian Homer took on the night and posted on Flickr. Feel free to flick through.
