Three superb musicians join forces for an evening of Jazz at Karamel with Josephine Davies on tenor sax, Dave Whitford on bass and Paul Clarvis on drums. They’re each hugely impressive individually, but when together,  their music comes into it’s own – thoughtful, skilled and balanced with a unique edge.

A great original voice on the UK Jazz Scene, Josephine Davies has already and worked and recorded with the likes of The London Jazz Orchestra, Jamie Cullum,The BBC Big Band, as well as a two year stint in the National Youth Jazz Orchestra.

Joined by Dave Whitford, since 1996, he has immersed him self in the London jazz scene establishing himself as one of the most in demand young bass players in the City and regularly performing at the capital’s top venues.

Paul Clarvis brings his unique style of musicianship to many genres and as one of the most requested session musicians, his playing can be heard on hundreds of films!

The wee band is the quartet of trumpeter Henry Lowther, guitarist Jim Mullen, bassist Dave Green and drummer Stu Butterfield, and “great” is a fair description of it. They're back at Karamel after a packed night last season, bringing their experienced and melodic tunes.

Founded in 1999, the band has had two albums shortlisted for UK Jazz Record of the Year.


With 2 of the musicians coming from Muswell Hill, this is a great opportunity, to see and support local, and nationally renown, brilliant musicians!

“Perfect small band jazz. Only the very best and most mature musicians can achieve this degree of simplicity, in which every tiny nuance counts” – Dave Gelly, The Observer

DOORS OPEN 7PM, MUSIC STARTS AT 8PM
TICKETS ARE £8 ON THE DOOR

“A Quartet of formidable talents who mean everything they play. A definite contender for record of the year” – Mark Gardner – Jazz Journal.

Henry Lowther (trumpet), Jim Mullen (guitar), Dave Green (bass) and Stu Butterfield (drums)
