Carol Grimes & Her Band – As Seen at Ronnie Scott’s

Please note this event has had a venue change and will now take place at The Mariner, Folkestone.

A very special evening with the legendary Carol Grimes and her outstanding band, bringing world-class live music to Folkestone.

With a career spanning decades across jazz, blues and soul, Carol Grimes is known for her powerful live performances, soulful presence and unforgettable voice. As seen at Ronnie Scott’s, she remains one of the UK’s most celebrated live vocalists.

For this special show, Carol brings her London-based band and mixes it with outstanding Folkestone musicians, creating a unique live performance full of depth, warmth and atmosphere.

She is joined by an exceptional line-up of highly respected, award-winning musicians including Alison Rayner, one of the UK’s leading jazz bassists and composers, pianist Steven Lodder, internationally recognised for his work across jazz and contemporary music, Deirdre Cartwright on guitar, an acclaimed performer and composer with a remarkable career in British jazz, Simon Lambert on saxophone, bringing rich tone and outstanding musicianship, and drummer Mykola Mishurenko, known for his dynamic style and powerful performances.

Set in an intimate candlelit setting with beautiful sea views, this is one of those rare evenings that feels truly special, a chance to experience world-class live music up close in a truly memorable atmosphere.

Early bird tickets are available from £15, with advance tickets at £17.50 (booking fee may apply) or £20 on the door.
