Welcome to the Swanage Jazz Club, a brand new venue in the heart of Dorset.
In partnership with Hampstead Jazz Club - which has become one of the most prestigious jazz venues in London since it first opened its doors four years ago - we will be presenting a series of monthly shows featuring an array of world class homegrown and international jazz musicians.
One of the key principles of the Swanage Jazz Club will be to support the best musicians in Dorset, affording them an opportunity to play with the crème de la crème of the jazz world: “I was extremely excited when we first came up with the idea of launching a dedicated monthly jazz club at the Isle Of Purbeck Golf Club,” explains Mayank Patel, owner of the Hampstead Jazz Club.
“I have always been passionate about bringing jazz music to places you wouldn’t normally associate it with. We wanted to give local bands and musicians a unique opportunity to perform to broader audiences and to work with some of the very best jazz artists in the world. It’s all about sharing this joyous music and passing the torch on from musician to musician. Swanage Jazz Club will be presenting an eclectic range of first-class music which goes from the Great American Songbook all the way through to classic bebop or blues with a dash of soul. As Duke Ellington once said: ‘There are simply two kinds of music - good music and the other kind.’
