John Etheridge's "Blue Spirits" Organ Trio Photo 1

“A virtuoso on acoustic and electric guitars”

Time Out

An iconic figure on the UK jazz scene, John Etheridge first came to prominence in the mid 70’s with the classic fusion band “Soft Machine”. During the same time - demonstrating his remarkable and now well-documented versatility - he also spent a number of years touring with the celebrated swing jazz violinist Stéphane Grappelli. In recent years he has been busy performing and recording as a solo artist and with his own bands, notably the “Zappatistas” (his tribute to Frank Zappa), “Sweet Chorus” dedicated to Stéphane and “Soft Machine”, with whom he still appears. A master guitarist he includes work with the likes of Dizzy Gillespie, Tony Williams, Yehudi Menuhin, Pat Metheny and John Williams on his extensive CV. The Blue Spirits Trio John is leading tonight is a classic guitar-led jazz organ trio and showcases the bluesier side of John’s musical repertoire. With Pete Whittaker (Nigel Price, The Filthy Six) on organ (a superb accompanist as well as soloist) and in demand drummer George Double. This is unquestionably live music at its very best.

“One of the best guitarists in the world” Pat Metheny; “gifted…spectacular” The Times; “…a master guitarist…brilliant” The Observer
