Carol Grimes & Her Band – As Seen at Ronnie Scott’s
If you are in the mood for something soulful, rich and genuinely captivating, this is your night.
Carol Grimes takes the stage with her band, bringing a powerful blend of jazz, blues and soul, delivered with warmth, character and a voice that holds the room effortlessly. With a career spanning decades across jazz, blues and soul, Carol is known for her powerful live performances, soulful presence and unforgettable voice. As seen at Ronnie Scott’s, she has built a reputation for performances that are both intimate and quietly electrifying, drawing audiences in and keeping them there.
For this special show, Carol brings her London-based band and mixes it with outstanding Folkestone musicians, creating a unique live performance full of depth, warmth and atmosphere.
She is joined by an exceptional line-up of highly respected, award-winning musicians including Alison Rayner, one of the UK’s leading jazz bassists and composers, pianist Steve Lodder, internationally recognised for his work across jazz and contemporary music, Deirdre Cartwright on guitar, an acclaimed performer and composer with a remarkable career in British jazz, Simon Lambert on saxophone, bringing rich tone and outstanding musicianship, and drummer Mykola Mishurenko, known for his dynamic style and powerful performances.
Set in an intimate candlelit setting with beautiful sea views, this is not a background music kind of evening. It is one to settle into, connect with and really experience.
One of those nights that lingers long after the last note.
Early bird tickets are available from £15, with advance tickets at £17.50 (booking fee may apply)
Doors open from 6pm if you would like to enjoy food before the show, vegan options available.
If you would like a table, please arrive early as seating is limited.
