Always great in these intimate gigs, Britain’s finest jazz vocalist, producer and songsmith, Ian Shaw hosts an exuberant party with a set of appropriately festive songs. Whether it’s his radical reworkings of alternative standards, choice cuts from the Joni Mitchell songbook or his own witty or evocatively sad originals, he is a peerless entertainer with a voice to die for. Winner of Parliamentary Jazz Award for best vocalist 2018.
In addition to Ian seeing us into 2019 in his inimitable style, there will be a welcoming complimentary glass of bubbly. Doors at 8.00pm for dinner tickets and 9.30pm for tickets without dinner.
Our dinner is specially prepared, as ever, by Derick in our kitchen. A groaning board of a buffet, with hot and cold dishes, with vegetarians and vegans also catered for.
Dinner tickets are limited, in keeping with the intimacy of the Vortex.
