Party This year the legendary Aberjazz Party, will be started by DJ Paul Murphy who has been credited with inventing the UK Jazz dance scene and who Giles Peterson called “The Godfather”. Regulars will remember The Chalk Outlines from last year’s party. It is always party time when this 9 piece ska band is playing; expect fast paced two-tone ska with Balkan, Latin and Hip-Hop Influences. Eugene "Uncle Funk" French will be spinning uptown beats for downtown freaks on 7" 45 vinyl treats. Aberjazz would like to thank everyone who supports the festival; our sponsors, our venues, our advertisers, our volunteers and most of all our audiences, without whom this festival would not exist. This year Aberjazz will be celebrating its 14th year, as well as being 50 years since the “summer of love” and Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, so to mark the occasion many of our bands will be slipping in the occasional Beatles song, in their own style. Regular Aberjazzers are aware that this festival is run by members of the local community on a not for profit basis. We hope you enjoy our taste in music, which is very loosely a mixture of jazz and blues with a touch of ska, folk, rock and just about anything that we like and we hope you like too. The prices at our ticketed events are kept as low as possible thanks to our sponsors and the support of local businesses who advertise in our programme. Children under the age of 16 (if accompanied by adults) are free to all our concerts in Ffwrn up until 9pm. The Aberjazz Fringe events and workshops are not ticketed but we do ask you to give generously to our bucketeers, as these donations are essential in order to keep the festival going. We would like to hear from you, we are on Twitter and Facebook @aberjazz and we will leave a few feedback forms in Ffwrn, or you can always email info@aberjazz.com.
