Dan Barker-Bey – Festival Rush Hour Jazz Wednesday 1st June 6pm PAYF

Dan Barker-Bey 2

Dan Barker-Bey is a tenor saxophonist, instrumental tutor and jazz educator based in Leeds. Graduating from Leeds College of Music in 2012, he has since built a professional career that has seen him perform and educate widely in the North of England.

He cites legendary players such as John Coltrane, Michael Brecker and Bob Berg as being some of his biggest influences, and strives to pay homage to those great voices of the tenor saxophone in his own playing and composition.

He’s accompanied by the JazzLeeds trio of Will Powell (guitar), Steve Crocker (bass) and Dom Moore (drums)

All our Rush Hour Jazz gigs take place in the Seven Arts bar area, so why not grab a drink and settle down to Dan’s stunning playing? Joined by the Jazz Leeds trio backing him up on some standard repertoire.

There’s no need to book, just rock up in the bar and take a seat.

The gig is pay as you feel (payf), and all the money donated goes to the performers of that evening. 6pm-7:15pm
