Jack Hues & The Quartet

Apr 4, 2016
-
Posted by Steve Clements

Hues is probably best known for the 80s smash ‘Dance Hall Days’ by Wang Chung, the new wave band he founded and continues to front. He’s been a mainstay of the Canterbury prog/folk/jazz scene for many years and brings his quartet to town in support of new jazz-flavoured album ‘A Thesis On The Ballad’.

There are a number of Great British influences on the romping ‘An Expanse Of Water’ and the feeling of space on ‘The Truth’ could be from a 1970s Windham Hill release, so the live show promises to be an eclectic evening of thoughtful, quintessentially English music.
