Club 43 in February
February features Aquarius Jazz; Made up of five of the country’s very best musicians and performing some of the UK’s finest swing and crooner-style jazz.
Aquarius Jazz consists of Chris Gaskell on vocals. Chris has travels extensively across the UK and Europe performing the songs from the American songbook. His smooth interpretations of many of the jazz ‘standards’ makes him one of the most in-demand singers around.
Chris is joined by one of the finest rhythm sections in the region. Recent winner of the Nottingham National Jazz Piano competition, Dan Whieldon is a regular at jazz festivals up and down the country and is one of the outstanding pianists on the UK jazz scene.
Ed Harrison was a regular on the London jazz scene before moving to the north-west in 2008 and has performed with the likes of Peter King, Gerard Presencer and John Etheridge. Marek Dorcik is firmly established as one of Manchester’s top drummers. Originally from Slovakia, he is a musician that is highly a sought after for the ease and technical skill of his drumming.

Jazz in Manchester
Manchester is steeped in JAZZ history…great musicians would come from all over the world to play here in the 50s and 60s, during the hey days of Jazz. The Free Trade Hall would play host to the likes of Ella Fitzgerald, Woody Herman, Count Basie, Miles Davis, Duke Ellington, Dizzy Gillespie and Billie Holiday – these were not just some of the greatest names in jazz, they were the jazz elite!
Created by a man named Eric Scriven, Club 43 was the place to go when you wanted to see great jazz musicians jamming together in a more intimate venue. Now the Manchester jazz scene is being honoured by the recreation of Club 43 as a supper club on the site of the Free Trade Hall by Radisson Edwardian hotels.
