Burnham-On-Sea jazz fans are preparing for a fresh season of live traditional jazz as the long‑running BD Jazz Club restarts its regular events.
The club, which has been running since 1996, will host a series of performances featuring well‑known jazz bands from across the UK.
The next shows will be The Nick White Quintet on Friday 29th May, The San Jacinto Stompers on Friday 26th June, and Richard Leach’s Street Band on Friday 31st July.
These will be followed by 28th August: Nick Ward’s Jelly Roll Kings; 25th September Riviera Ramblers; 30th October The Riverside Jazz Band; 27th November The Jake Leg Jug Band; 18th December John Maddocks’ Jazzmen.
Tickets for each event are priced at £10 per person on the door. The performances are held at Cossington Village Hall (TA7 8JN) from 8pm-10.30pm. Doors open at 7pm.
The BD Jazz Club was formed to preserve and promote New Orleans and traditional jazz in Burnham-On-Sea and the surrounding area.
As a non‑profit organisation, the club donates any surplus funds to charity and is currently supporting the RNIB Guide Dog Training Programme. The regular sessions regularly feature bands from across the UK, and organisers say newcomers are always welcome.
