The Hugh Pascall Quartet has been booked by Shrewsbury Jazz Network for its monthly event on Saturday October 8.

Led by Hugh Pascall, on trumpet, and flugelhorn, the others in the quartet are Liam Dunachie (piano), Oli Hayhurst (bass) and Jay Davis (drums).

They are described as having an "accessible, modern approach to post-bop jazz".

Organisers say the event "promises bouncing rhythms and lustrous ballads inspired by such greats as John Coltrane, Freddie Hubbard and Joe Henderson."

As usual with SJN events it will be held at The Hive Music and Media Centre, in Belmont, Shrewsbury SY1 1TE.

Tickets, priced at £23, and £12 for under 22s, and available from hiveonline.org.uk or by phoning 01743 234970.
