8.30 - 11.00pm
£5 on the door

Sam Mayne's debut at the East Side came earlier this year when he played alto sax on John Horler's gig. Suffice to say that the strength and creativity of his performance that evening more than merits an early invitation to return, this time as leader. A former student of the Royal Academy of Music, Sam's work credits include Billy Cobham, Amy Winehouse, BBC Big Band & Concert Orchestra, Joe Locke, Victor Bailey, Django Bates, Tim Garland, Stan Tracey, Joe Lovano, Bud Shank, Patti Austin and Gladys Knight. Trumpeter Steve Fishwick is already a firm favourite here with his stylish and perfectly executed take on the classic hard bop sound.
