Appearing on Sunday night at the club which meets at Campus West, Welwyn Garden City, is Liam Noble, piano, Tim Thornton, bass, Chris Draper and Clark Tracey, drums, and guest appearances from Alan Skidmore, Jean Toussaint, Stan Sulzmann and Steve Melling.
Admission is �10 online at www.welhat.gov.uk/cw, �12 on the door and �5 for students and under-21s.
