Neil C. Young Trio
Lots of exciting projects on the horizon….
In April, I’ll be playing with the band of twice Grammy nominated jazz guitarist, Neil C.Young. I’ll be standing in on bass with his trio at Zeffirelli’s in Ambleside on Sat 5th April.
I’m really looking forward to this gig, and the chance to play with Neil and the band. I’ve known Neil for a number of years, he a fine guitarist and a really nice chap. I studied under his father, Peter Young at college. Neil himself, went on to run the music course, after his father retired. Between them they are responsible for encouraging hundreds of young musicians across the North of England. Neil’s brother Richard is a great musician too, he’s a fine drummer, and also plays in the trio. I have nothing but respect for the whole Young clan, so this will be a special gig.
Can’t wait.
I’m off to learn the tunes….
