The power septet 'Fuzz' will start off the evening playing danceable swing, funk and latin jazz grooves. The band consists of Frank Sebastian on sax, Cameron Scott on euphonium & trombone, Ian Buzer on trumpet, Tony Gooderham on keys, Gareth George on guitar, Joshua Graham on bass, Adrian Wiggins on percussion and Elmer Van Der Hoek on drums.

This will be a sociable event where you can mingle, show off on the dance floor or you just chill and enjoy the music with a festive drink. The cafe is selling wine, beer, non-alcoholic drinks and snacks.

The band will play two sets 8-10pm before opening the stage for other musicians, including singers, to take part in the jam until midnight.

Entrance to the Commons cafe is via the back door in the wall behind the Minories, just across from Firstsite. Doors open 7.30pm.
