Advanced Warning: Limavady Jazz & Blues Festival (11th -14th June)


I'm fairly sure by now that Limavady Borough Council should actually be paying for advertising space. Regardless, the lineup for this years LJABF does seem to have raised the bar a lot from the previous couple of years, not wanting to play second fiddle to the Derry Jazz Festival. Huzzah! I say.

So this year, in no particular order (except alphabetical):

Apex Jazz Band

Bad Habits

Beekeepers

Benny Browne

Bourbon Swing

Derry City Dixielanders

Derry Jazz Quartet

Dixieland Jazz Strollers

Easy Jazz Trio

Errol Walsh

Frank Robinson Duo

Graffiti Limbo

Hat Fitz

John Trotter Duo

Kenny Peace

Key Frances

Lee Hedley Band

Lightnin’ Tree

Limavady Big Band Sound

Limavady Grammar School Band

Mark Black Band

Mark Braidner

Men In Black

Men Who Knew Too Much

Mirenda Rosenberg Band

Paul Buckley

Roy Mitchell

Slyde Band

Steve James

Swinging Bluecats

Zero Resistance


You can click on each of the artists to get a full profile from the Jazz and Blues website. Pictured above is Mirenda Rosenberg who I had the pleasure of doing a shoot with last December. Nice to see a good turn out of local bands as well, Zero Resistance, Kenny Peace, Roy Mitchell and Graffiti Limbo all making appearances.
