RAM Jam to play with Dudley Nesbitt

RAM Jam are delighted to confirm that the guest soloist for their forthcoming gig at the Victoria Hall Theatre in Settle will be Britain's foremost exponent of steel pan, Dudley Nesbitt!

Dudley learnt to play as a young man in Trinidad and went on to arrange for some of the top steel pan orchestras in Trinidad at the highest level, including arrangements for the annual steel pan competition and festival PANORAMA, which is held at Carnival time. He moved to England in the early 90s to arrange for the North Stars steel band, before going on to promote steel pan across the country by performing and teaching at all levels. Nesbitt continues to play with a fire and brilliance unmatched by many men half his age, fed by his passion for steel pan and Jazz.

Dudley will be performing alongside RAM Jam and Dales Jam at the Victoria Hall on Saturday 27 March in what promises to be another colourful explosion of jazz, funk, soul and world music.

Tickets for the performance are priced at £7 and £4 for concessions and are available from the Victoria Hall Theatre.
