James Allsopp Group

James Allsopp (tenor saxophone and mellotron) returns to SJN at the Hive with a new and exciting project featuring some of London's most in demand musicians. Chris Batchelor (trumpet), Tom Herbert (electric bass), Zands Duggan (percussion) and Dave Storey (drums).

The band is on tour to promote their new album “Stars and Sand”. Expect deep grooves inspired in equal parts by traditional North African music, Soul Jazz and Berlin in the 70s. This is joyous, life affirming music. Deceptively simple, deeply melodic and with a healthy dose of the otherworldly.
