We are delighted to welcome back to The Vineyard Jamie Safir, one of the country’s leading jazz pianists who is joined this evening by renowned clarinet virtuoso Kenny Martyn making his festival debut.

Jamie is a Decca-Recording artist, “…one of the biggest talents of British jazz piano” (Jay Rayner, The Guardian) collaborating with Will Young regularly since 2015 and Kylie Minogue since 2022. Resident at The Ritz, he’s also performed alongside the likes of Olly Murs, Tony Hadley, Mica Paris, Claire Martin, Elaine Delmar, Clare Teal, Liane Carrol, Rebecca Ferguson and Tony Christie.

Tonight Jamie will be joined by Kenny Martyn, a talented multi-instrumentalist who regularly performs across the world on alto sax, clarinet, ukulele and as a vocalist.

Together Jamie and Kenny will explore music from New Orleans, the British Trad Jazz era, American swing and ballad standards. The evening will start with a drink on arrival, before a two-course meal prepared by The Vineyard’s head chef with seating at tables of 10.
