On Saturday 27th October the Rye international jazz and blues festival proudly presented the wonderfully talented American jazz singer, songwriter and saxophonist Curtis Stigers at the atmospheric and intimate setting of Tonbridge School, Kent. This was the first performance of Curtis’ UK winter tour and a capacity audience were treated to two carefully crafted sets that included a stunning range of repertoire from Curtis' impressive back catalogue and jazz standards. Curtis was in fine voice showing off his impressive vocal range and was joined by his jazz quartet of exceptionally talented musicians.

As the Christmas season once again approaches, the Rye international jazz & blues festival is delighted to announce a very special series of stunning, intimate, world class concerts in the beautiful setting of St Mary’s Church in Rye on 14th to 16th of December. Spread the joy this season and treat yourself, your other half or get a group of friends together and enjoy an early Christmas treat!
