THIS WEEK The Royal Southern Brotherhood Wed 7 Nov Before they even hit a chord, The Royal Southern Brotherhood will have your attention their line up comprises of both the iconic Cyril Neville and Devon Allman, meaning The Royal Southern Brotherhood come pre-loaded with expectations. But don't worry: they can match them. The family tree might be auspicious, but this new band trades on talent, not genealogy.

Don't miss her live in London! ticketmaster Agitation Free Sat 10 Nov Experimental German legends Agitation Free are back with a new musically adventurous album, "Shibuya Nights".

Don't miss them live in London! ticketmaster SENSHUKAI presents Yu Sakai + Special guest Nate James Sun 11 Nov Japans Yu Sakai brings his unique voice and creative blend of original sound to the Jazz Cafe. Drawing from a wide range of musical styles, such as soul music, R&B, jazz, gospel and rock, he comes in support of his latest album Hows It Going?". ticketmaster COMING UP...   Aesthetic Sounds presents Lalah Hathaway + special guest Julie Dexter Mon 12 & Thu 15 Nov   Shuggie Otis + Marcus Bonfanti Tue 20 & Wed 21 Nov Born to R&B/soul music royalty, most people know her simply as the daughter of late soul music legend, Donny Hathaway. But there is more to her than that. A trained pianist and vocalist, she is a graduate of the Berklee College of Music and her career has spanned two decades. Twenty-one years after the release of her first LP, her career continues to thrive. It was 1990 when Lalah made her music debut on Virgin Records with the self-titled album Lalah Hathaway, effortlessly fusing elements of R&B, jazz and pop.   Compared with Hendrix and BB King at the age of 15, Shuggie's stand out works are the two expansive, genre-defying, deeply curious albums, 1971's Freedom Flight and 1974's Inspiration Information. The records, essentially crafted as a one- man band, floored Sly Stone, gave the Brothers Johnson their most enduring hit (Strawberry Letter 23) and predated the stylistic synthesist Prince by half a decade. Don't miss this debut London show from the genius multi-instrumentalist. ticketmaster   ticketmaster   Ernest Ranglin, Sly & Robbie: Jamaican Legends Sat 1 Dec   Martha Reeves & The Vandellas Wed 19 & Thu 20 Dec Don't miss this earth-shattering virtuoso union to celebrate Jamaica's 50th independence anniversary, as Ernest Ranglin, Sly and Robbie each of them responsible for pushing the sound of Jamaica into the mainstream - perform together as the 'Jamaican Legends 2012'!   It was 1962 that Motown first heard the voice that would become synonymous with "the sound of young America." Martha Reeves And The Vandellas went on to be one of the most successful bands in '60s Motown, boasting a harder R&B sound than their contemporaries; songs like 'Jimmy Mack' and 'Dancing In The Street' have become some of the best-known songs of the era. Today, Martha Reeves continues to thrill audiences around the world, and takes to the stage at the Jazz Café for two special nights this December. ticketmaster   ticketmaster   The London Community Gospel Choir Fri 21 & Sat 22 Dec   Jocelyn Brown Thu 14, Fri 15 & Sat 16 Feb The London Community Gospel Choir Christmas Residency continues this December! Now in their 30th year, they're often billed as 'the nation's favourite choir', and it's not hard to understand why when you hear their outstanding voices soar. Their vocal harmony singing has backed many a pop star too, showing just how versatile a Gospel Choir can be.   Jocelyn Brown is a woman with a powerful, soul shaking voice that reaches out with extended arms and engulfs your musical desires. Known for her vocal sample in Snap's number one "I Got the Power", Jocelyn's latest material demonstrates her ability to diversify her talents, since she produces it herself with collaborations from other talented UK and US producers and musicians. Don't miss her live in London! ticketmaster   ticketmaster FROM OUR FRIENDS Mean Fiddler & Jazz Cafe presents Bobby Womack 'The Bravest Man In The Universe Tour' Feat. special guests Damon Albarn & Richard Russell The Forum / Tue 27 Nov EXTRA DATE ADDED DUE TO PHENOMENAL DEMAND!
