All London's live music

This band of bandleaders has been together for over 10 years and features Brigitte Beraha – Vocals/Co-composer, Ivo Neame – Piano/Keys, Tomas Challenger – Sax, Rob Updegraff – Guitars, Dave Manington – Double Bass and Tim Giles – Drums. The music is lyrical, intimate and creative, at times lush and beautiful, others raw and powerful – with influences from across the whole spectrum of music.

Bassist and composer Dave Manington is one of the mainstays of the London jazz scene, a founder member of the Loop Collective, he has played with many of the pre-eminent jazz musicians in the UK and Europe including Julian Arguelles, Marius Neset and Gwilym Simcock amongst many others. He co-founded the Loop Collective to pool creative resources with other like-minded musicians. His debut quartet album "Headrush" was released on Loop Records in 2008 to critical acclaim. He followed this up with two albums from his band "Riff Raff" which were described as “Inventive, forward-looking jazz that subtly pushes the envelope whilst remaining thoroughly accessible to the listener.” The Jazzmann.
