For a set of hot jazz from July 19, 2020, British clarinetist Adrian Cox teams up with pianist Joe Webb.

Cox began playing clarinet when he was six and at 15 he left home to become a professional musician.

While he has played blues, funk and ska, jazz is his true love.

For a time he was featured in his show “Profoundly Blue” which paid tribute to the great clarinetist Edmond Hall

Pianist Joe Webb, who is also from the United Kingdom, is a versatile pianist who perfectly fits in with Adrian Cox’s music.

The duo performs spirited versions of such numbers as “Royal Garden Blues,” “Blame It On The Blues,” Jelly Roll Morton’s “Winin’ Boy Blues” (which Cox sings), a pretty uptempo version of “High Society,” a heated “Blue Room,” “Stardust” and other vintage material during their frequently hard-swinging set.

Jonathan Thomas is a promising young jazz pianist who was born and raised in Cleveland.

Thomas’ roots are in gospel music, he discovered jazz early, and his inspirations include Ahmad Jamal, Oscar Peterson, Kenny Kirkland and Robert Glasper.

Thomas attended the New School and has performed with the Juilliard Jazz Orchestra, Charles Tolliver, Milton Suggs, and his own group.

With his trio on his LiveStream from July 16, 2020, Jonathan Thomas performs a variety of tunes including a swinging rendition of “You’re My Everything” (he is particularly inventive over the closing vamp), “The Good Life,” an original spiritual ballad, a boppish “Nice Work If You Can Get It,” and “The Touch Of Your Lips.”

The pianist clearly has a great future ahead of him.
