Les Hommes at Jamboree

Jamboree · London

Jazz n' lounge experimenters Les Hommes return to Jamboree with the outta-sight mood, bringing on mid-century sonic chic, '60s Rio sambossa, percussion-heavy mondo jazz and sounds from Cinecittà. Led by organist Rory More and the visceral tones of his very vintage Lowrey organ, Les Hommes promise the grooves and vibrations lost to dusty celluloid. Plus, before- and after-show vinyl DJing with library music connoisseur Geoff Leonard whose box of orchestral grooves, cinelounge and utterly out-of-sight 20th century curios will keep you right on the floor. Expect full-on jazzuous ear candy! Jamboree food option: Our ‘Zer’ kitchen is open from 5pm serving delicious Middle Eastern fusion food for you to enjoy a meal/snack if you wish!

STRAIGHTEN OUT are the premier Stranglers tribute band out there…if you were lucky enough to be in the audience last time around in The Dublin Castle you’ll know what a superb experience this is. More than a mere tribute, this is two hours of the most sincere and assured expression of The Meninblack’s best works as you could possibly hope for. With an extensive set-list that spans two solid hours, Straighten Out re-create the ‘early years’ sound of The Stranglers, complete with a keyboard rig that is the same model as the original used by Mr. Greenfield himself in the 1970’s…! The growling bass sound and the quirky guitar riffs are all there to be heard as is the dual vocal ‘attack’ from the two frontmen a la Burnel-Cornwellas they rip through all the classics: ‘Peaches’, ‘Hanging Around’, ‘No More Heroes’, ‘5 Minutes’, ‘The Raven’, ‘Walk On By’, ‘Straighten Out’, ‘Down In The Sewer’ and more! This remarkable band cover virtually the whole of the first three Stranglers’ classic albums and delve beyond into some of their ‘80s twisted pop gems too. Straighten Out – live and unleashed – will take you on a nostalgia trip that tr...
