A night of stellar live music including soul classics, blues greats, and celebrated original music.

Join local powerhouse Polly Gibbons and her brilliant six-piece band – featuring two backing vocalists and Ronnie Scotts’ James Pearson – for an evening of incredible live music!

Three years after launching her album As It Is right here at the New Wolsey Theatre, Polly returns to her roots with a perfectly balanced set: a showcase of her own soulful original songs alongside some much-loved classics from the world of blues, soul and jazz.

Nominated for ‘Best Jazz Vocalist’ by both the BBC and Jazz FM, Polly’s world-class vocals have graced the Royal Albert Hall and New York’s Blue Note.

Don’t miss this special hometown show!
