News, events and insights at Caffe Portico.
After the toe tapping evening we had on Wednesday, courtesy of the very talented duo Jinski, we want to keep the ball rolling! We will be welcoming Liteside, a firm favourite at Caffe Portico, on Saturday 24th September.
Liteside are a Newark based band and have been playing together for the past 8 years. Their six piece outfit (3 horns, 3 rhythm) have played in all the Newark jazz festivals and at Caffe Portico on many occasions.
Liteside’s smooth, melodic tunes mean you don’t have to be a jazz buff to enjoy them; they call it “jazz for people who don’t think they like jazz”. Their foot-tapping swing & Latin tunes and smooth ballads make for sweet listening. Think Duke Ellington meets Jools Holland and you’ll be in the right area.
Follow this link to have a listen, they’ve put together a compilation to give you a flavour of what a Liteside jazz evening will be like.
Tickets are an absolute steal at £6 so pick up yours while we still have seats available!
As usual a special menu will be prepared, the food being nearly as much of a treat as the music!
We hope to see as many of you there as possible, its not a night to miss, call 07956653156 for more details.
