Deeply grooving
ONE of Scotland’s biggest names in contemporary jazz is returning to Shetland this weekend.
Saxophonist Tommy Smith and his group Karma will play a concert in Mareel on Sunday night starting at 8pm.
In June last year the quartet played a sell-out concert at Islesburgh, just after the new group had been formed.
Organiser Jeff Merrifield said: “Respected jazz critics regard Karma as the toughest and most creative group of Tommy Smith’s distinguished career, a band of virtuosic musicians on a deeply grooving acid jazz adventure that draws on Celtic influences and others from around the world.”
Tickets are priced at £12 (£10 for jazz club members) and are available from the Shetland Box Office on 01595 745 555 or online at www.shetlandboxoffice.org.
