Rose Room are coming to Queensferry. This is a must see event! 23rd May, Doors at 7. Rosebery Hall. BYOB.
Scottish Jazz Award-winners Rose Room have become one of Scotland’s leading ensembles influenced by the Gypsy Jazz genre. Sharing a love of Swing music and the style of the great Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli, their “vigorous and vivacious” performances go “down a storm” with any audience as they serve up their 1930s ‘Hot Club’ standards, Gypsy Jazz favourites and self-penned originals with virtuosity, verve and panache recreating the excitement of Rive Gauche Paris.
Based in Glasgow, the quartet is fronted by award-winning violinist and “sophisticated songstress” Seonaid Aitken who was voted Scottish Jazz Awards ‘Best Vocalist’ in 2017 & 2018 and also plays with the Orchestra of Scottish Opera, the Tim Kliphuis Sextet and is presenter of BBC Radio Scotland’s ‘Jazz Nights’. Scotland’s No.1 guitar maker, Jimmy Moon of ‘Moon Guitars’, features on double bass with Celtic Connections’ Danny Kyle Award-winners ‘Swing Guitars’ Tam Gallagher and Conor Smith on rhythm and solo guitars respectively.
“As close to the sound of the great Stephane Grappelli as I think you’re going to hear in Scotland” BBC RADIO SCOTLAND
“Rose Room swing harder than an elm tree in
a force nine gale…” SHETLAND NEWS
