Sharkeygroup + Jazz Club DJs

Friday 22nd May

7pm

The Chemic Tavern

Presented by Jazz Club

Tickets: PAY AS YOU FEEL!

Jazz Club is proud  to host a special performance by the Sharkeygroup for Leeds Jazz Festival 2026.

A spontaneous exploration into sound and rhythm, led by veteran musician Chris Sharkey (trioVD, Roller Trio, Acoustic Ladyland), it features a revolving cast of Leeds’s finest young creatives.

Together they gather round a campfire of shared musical ideas, warming themselves, and us, with music that is structured, exciting and accessible, intense yet measured.

Think Jeff Parker and the ETA IVtet and you’ll be getting somewhere in the same ballpark, but have no doubt that Sharkeygroup are truly unique

Just for Leeds Jazz Festival they will be featuring brand new material alongside their usual open-form approach, so this is definitely not one to be missed.

Personnel:

Scarlett Baxter - Drums
Louis Berthoud - Drums
Toby Freeman - Bass / Keys
Chris Sharkey - Guitar / Electronics

They will be supported by Jazz Club DJs, playing the full heap and looking for some dancers at the end.

All are very, very welcome at Jazz Club and we love to meet new people.
