Valley plays host to top jazz musicians


Ribble Valley Jazz


and Blues Club hosts the Nicolas Meier Group with Gilad Atzmon.


THE latest concert organ­ ised by the Ribble Valley Jazz and Blues Club marked a big step forward for the club when it played host to a band which is one of the major new influ­ ences on the British jazz


scene. Performing a t the St


Michael and St John’s Social Centre, Clitheroe, the Nicolas Meier Group, featuring Gilad Atzmon, gave us a varied and hugely rewarding evening of music. This band demonstrated


that the “big tent” that jazz today represents is getting ever bigger. Gone is the time when all the innovations in the music came from the USA; now, with the term world-jazz being used, the influences are international. Swiss guitarist Nicholas

Meier was joined by Israelis Gilad Atzmon (alto/clarinet) and Asaf Sirkis (drums),- with


drum artist


AT the recent Clitheroe Festival the beat of African drums resounded around Clitheroe Cas­ tle and York Street. Joining local drumming group


Slap Happy a t th e event was West African a r t is t Mbackeh Darboe. Mbackeh is in the Ribble Valley ■visiting his manager, Jenny Milne. The pair met in Australia where they worked together for 12 years. Mbackeh performed at various festivals and provided workshops for all ages before returning to The Gambia in 2007 and forming a “super band” of, musicians - “Back To The Roots” and is about to release a new CD. • On Saturday, July 5th, Mback­


Britain represented by Tom Mason (bass). Most of the material they


played came from their new CD, “Silence Talks”, showing Nicolas Meier’s growing inter­ est in Turkish music in his composing. He even played the Turkish:


Sass in addition to some great acoustic guitar. Gilad Atzmon was in com­ manding form, adding to the


Charlie Parker influence of his earlier playing, th a t of Jewish Klezmer and other middle eastern influences. With the addition of wonder­ ful drumming from Asaf Sirkis and bass playing from Tom Mason, this was music of a very high order. . . : The supporting group, the Jmz Commandos, in spite of such high-powered company, gave a good account of them­


selves, with fine soloing on alto and soprano sax from Phil Meadows and good sup­ p o r t from the re s t of the band. The club’s next gig will be


at the Swan and Royal Hotel, Castle Street, Clitheroe, on Friday, July 25th, and will feature Julie Edwards and Ke-vin Dearden.


DAVID HERMON sRow us you're hot stuff on the dance floor!


GIRLS and boys from the Ribble Valley have been challenged to show they are “hot stuff ” on the dance floor. Padiham-based cheerleading team


“F ire s ta r te r s” are looking for new recruits - including bright sparks aged


five upwards. Firestarters would welcome young


people of all abilities who would like to be in at the s ta r t of a relatively new team. The team coach is 17-year-old Ste­ vie Lynagh, a highly trained dance star who has appeared on TV. Team manag­ er is her mum, Hayley Lynagh. Hayley explained: “We pride ourselves


on giving a warm welcome to young peo­ ple of all abilities. We do have a competi­ tion squad and we are ambitious to do


well as a team. However, the main aim is for all our dancers to have fun, keep fit, make new friends and learn new dance moves. “This has meant that we have already


recruited both experienced cheerleaders and people who are trying it for the first


time.” - ' Stevie added: “Firestarters has not


been going long, so it is great to be part of something new and exciting. We are a real team too, and all look after each other.” Sessions are a t Padiham Methodist


Church (opposite Padiham Paints). Children aged eight to 16 meet from 5 to 6 p.m. on Thursday and Friday, and from 1-30 to 2-30pni on Sunday. Firestarters


Wifi l i f t lS


has also just launched a new cheer class for children aged five to eight, who meet from 12-30 to 1-30 p.m. on Sundays. The team has already attracted spon­


sorship and is busy designing a perform­ ance uniform using ideas and suggestions from team members. For more details phone Hayley on 07966 030942 or e-mail: firestarters@orange.net


eh will join Slap Happy for a day of drumming workshops at Trini­ ty Church Hall. A two-hour ses­ sion for beginners will take place from 10 a.m. followed by an improvers’ session between 1 and 3 p.m. For more details about the


event ring Kath Rimmer on 01254 824398 or email drum- mers@slaphappy.plus.com
