A live performance will take place in Cirencester on Saturday to mark International Jazz Day.
The celebration takes place on April 30 every year to highlight jazz and its diplomatic role of uniting people in all corners of the globe. The idea came from jazz pianist and UNESCO Good Will Ambassador, Herbie Hancock, and is even recognised by the United Nations.
Ingleside House and Téatro Bar and Restaurant will be celebrating with a live garden performance from the award-winning Steven Reid Williams and his band.
As a piano player, guitarist and singer, Steve has been drafted in to play keyboards for several artists including Jamelia, Leo Sayer, Mel C, Paul Young, Sophie Ellis-Bexter, Rebecca Ferguson, Corey Hart, The Overtones, Lulu, Tulisa, Nadine Coyle and many others.
The occasion will see the Téatro firepit and outdoor seating open up to the public again after being closed for winter.
Ryan Walters, manager of Ingleside and Téatro, said: “Steve is a fantastic performer and I look forward to hosting him and his band.”
Steve’s band will begin their performance at 8pm.
