It’s Canary Wharf Festival time again. Dates are August 12th-14th in Canada Square Park.
Saturday is promising too, particularly for Sam Leak’s young band Aquarium in the afternoon, and culminating way from jazz with the Herbaliser (video below from the Exit Festival in Novi Sad in Serbia.) Sunday builds towards a jazz climax with strong Yorkshire conections: Clare Teal and the Jay Phelps Big Band. If the weather is good there’s nowhere in London nicer to be.
And tucked away “hors programme” are film screenings earlier in the day. Monk from 1968, Monk in Europe and Jazz on a Summer’s Day
