Festivals Georgia Mancio’s ReVoice! Festival 9th – 20th October Fantastic singer Georgia Mancio organises ReVoice! Festival and this year it celebrates its 5th anniversary. The festival offers an incredible and varied array of vocal talent and this year the festival not only resides at its original location, London’s Pizza Express Jazz Club, but also ventures outside the capital to Bury St Edmunds and Dorking where the opening night takes place at Watermill Jazz Club on 9th October. On each night in addition to curating the event Georgia will be performing with a different – and often new to her – collaborator. This is definitely a festival that celebrates both musicianship and the sense of community, allowing national and international collaborations that probably would not be possibly otherwise. Check our listings for the full programme or go to www. revoicefestival.com for more info.

Look Out for the On the Gigs Young & cover: Talented! Alison Rayner ARQ Jazz in Safe Hands: Royal Academy of Music Junior Jazz Course Students led by Nick Smart & Gareth Lockrane @Kings Place, London on 4th October. The Royal Academy of Music’s Junior Jazz Course has been running for 10 years now and since its formation it has prepared some of the finest musicians we now enjoy
A bass-player and composer, Alison Rayner has been a solid mainstay of the scene for many years both as a player and as a promoter with Blow The Fuse, who in partnership with guitarist and long-time musical partner Deirdre Cartwright celebrated their 25th anniversary this year. Rayner’s ARQ group serve up some deliciously upbeat, groovy and thoughtful jazz, and the recent
album August – funded through Jazz Services’ own Recording Support Scheme – shows her to be a superb composer to boot. Recorded live at London’s Vortex club in 2013, it’s a prefect showcase of Rayner’s diverse talents. ARQ tours this autumn with Jazz Services support to showcase the album and Alison’s talents not only as a composer and bass player, but bandleader as well.
