Steve’s gigs September 2008

Here is info on an exciting new gig:

This FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 5th, I play at a brand new venue, THE ALBERT RESTAURANT AND WINEBAR in Bakewell on Bridge Street, DE45 1DS.

It’s a great spot and it would be great if you could make it. When booking it wouldn’t hurt to ask “is it really true that Steve Salfield is playing there”.

Then the management might give me another gig. You can book a table for dinner or you can have a drink in the winebar.

I’ll be playing with wonderful guitarist and good friend, Pat Sprakes. I’m looking forward to a good first night there.

(It’s where The Prospect used to be).

Sunday 7^th September 2-4pm. Wirksworth Arts and Architecture Trail, at Memorial Gardens, 2-2.40 and 3.20-4

Salfield/Chandler – Our Quartet, Steve on sax, Matt Chandler on electric guitar, Richard Keates double bass, Clive Loveday drums. We play some original compositions, some well known tunes and some less well known, beautiful numbers.

The original material is developed by Salfield and Chandler who get together for improvising and composing sessions. When promising ideas emerge, they are developed into themes or new tunes, which form the basis for the quartet’s improvising material. The result is a mix of wistful free ideas, funky rhythmic dance numbers, melodic waltzes and anything else that emerges.

It’s an interesting afternoon with many art exhibitions in various venues around Wirksworth and a lot of live music – so don’t miss it.
