Following its successful launch at the end of last year, Aberdeenshire-based jazz singer Cindy Douglas’s venture, Eat to the Beat, has now hit the road, with dates being planned for all around Scotland.
The programme swings into action this Saturday in the Guide hut at the King George V Park, Banchory, which will be transformed into a sophisticated jazz club, restaurant and art gallery for the night.
Cindy said: “Jazz is normally an event either performed in a traditional setting like a concert hall or relegated as background music in a bar.
“I came up with the idea to create ‘pop-up jazz supper clubs’ after enjoying the experience of larger city jazz clubs where people can enjoy dinner and jazz at the same time, in intimate surroundings with great atmosphere.”
Cindy has studied with some of the world’s leading jazz vocal educators, including Mark Murphy, Sheila Jordan, Jay Clayton, Anita Wardell and Liane Carroll, and her singing style has been described as exuberant, mesmerising and versatile.
Doors open at 7pm and tickets, priced £25, which include a two-course meal, are available from www.brownpapertickets.com
