THE COSIMO MATASSA PROJECT: The Cosimo Matassa Project are launching their new EP, ‘Sahara’ at Green Note!
A group of musicians brought together by a love of the music that came out of New Orleans via Cosimo Matassa’s studios in the 1950s, the band has developed its own unique sound, which incorporates 50s RnB, jazz, soul, mambo, ballads and much more.
The group features the soulful Welsh baritone Dai Price on vocals. Al ‘Dente’ Dunn, who has played with artists such as Loudon Wainright and Richard Thompson, plays piano. Jonathan Lee, once a mainstay of The James Hunter Six, plays drums for the band. The horn section is comprised of Dave Priseman on trumpet and Damian Hand on sax, who between them can boast credits as varied as Van Morrison, Jeff Beck, Allen Toussaint, Jerry Dammers, Jools Holland and Ray Gelato.
Doors open 7pm, Music starts 8.30pm. The venue is mixed seated and standing. Tables are limited, and available on a first come first served basis, so if you’d like a seat, we recommend arriving early!
