Soul Choir and Band
We're back - after a summer break - and we want more voices and more instruments for our workshops and for our next public performance (optional, no pressure - but I know you'll love it).
Ideal entry for singers new to our workshops.
Classic Soul songs in full vocal arrangements with live band.
Let's bring the backgrounds to the foreground (where they belong) and put them on an equal footing with the lead vocals.

This is for you if you are:
• a backing vocalist
• a lead vocalist
• a backing vocalist who wants to develop their lead vocal skills
• a lead vocalist who wants to develop their backing vocal skills
• a singer who wants to develop their percussion skills
• a musician who wants to accompany singers and support them
• a musician who wants to develop their own vocal skills
• a guitarist, keyboard player, bass player, drummer, horn player, string player, percussionist
Use your existing skills and develop new ones.
The Soul repertoire offers an incredibly rich variety of vocal combinations. We will be able to choose songs to suit whatever combination of leads and backing vocals we get.
Have fun singing essential, but often neglected elements of the arrangements. Vocal backgrounds play an important role in Soul - using call-and-response; creating variety of texture; defining sections of the song; differentiating repeats of the same section; building excitement.
The workshop will be led by Andy Dummett.
Andy has been privileged to play with many of the great singers, songwriters and musicians from Stax, Atlantic, Motown and more
The way we use the studio has changed. This should be reassuring for those who are hesitant or cautious. Husky is a very Covid-secure venue and it’s important that all our members are protected, especially the most vulnerable. I would not be starting up again if I wasn’t confident in their procedures.
Full details are available on the studio’s website:
https://www.huskystudios.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Husky-Studios-Coronavirus-COVID-19-customer-guide.pdf

· Wear a mask when you come in
· Use the hand sanitiser at the entrance
· Bring your own hand sanitiser for use in the room
· Bring spare masks if you need them (they are available from the office – but for £5 each!)
· Let me know you’re coming. If I’m expecting you, let me know if you’re not coming.
· Let me have your phone number AND postcode for NHS Test & Trace
· Microphones will be available and will have been disinfected. There is a deposit of £5 per mic, refunded on return
· Microphone cables are not available. If you need to use a mic, please bring your own cable

Collage Presents CHUBE @ Karamel
***"I'm still Buzzing. Chube totally blew away any preconceptions of a jazz harp trio that you might have brought through the door." - Dave Fuller, 14/11/24, The Jazz Mann Review***
**Collage presents...**
**Chube**
**@ Karamel Club**
**Thu, Feb 26, 2026 7:00 PM**
**[£13 General admission; £10 Earlybird; £5 Student >> BOOKINGS <<](https://www.musicglue.com/karamel/events/2026-02-26-chube-karamel)**
**Entry Requirements: All welcome**
**Doors open 7pm, music from 8pm.**
**Band Members:**
**Harp/Keys - Ben Creighton Griffiths**
**Basses - Ashley John Long**
**Drums - John Bradford-Jones**
**Chube is a young fusion band based in Cardiff led by Ben Creighton Griffiths (Electric Harp/Keys) with Ashley John Long and Jon Bradford-Jones (Drums). They draw their inspiration from a wide variety of artists and genres and write electro acoustic music that pushes the boundaries of their instruments. The harp features prominently in performances, and Ben uses effects processors to take the harp from it's regular, classical sound, to a rock guitar through distortion, an ambient synth through delays and phasers, and much more. Combined with innovative percussion and groovy bass riffs it all goes to creating a totally unique blend of Jazz Fusion.**
**Biog - Chube was set up by Ben Creighton Griffiths (Harp, Keys) and Matt Williams (Drums, Engineering) in 2015. They wrote their first tracks in 2016 before being joined by Aeddan Williams on bass for the recording of their first EP in summer 2017, before releasing it at an exclusive launch show at Tiny Rebel Cardiff in 2018. Since then the project has gone from strength to strength. After the Covid pandemic Ben was joined by Ashley John Long on bass and Jon Bradford Jones on drums, whilst Matt remains with the group as a producer and engineer. Cameron Saint (RWCMD and RAM) regularly takes on bass duties when Ashley is unavailable.**
**Chube has performed at a number of festivals including the Brecon Jazz Festival, In It Together Festival, Harp on Wight, Aberjazz, Croftfest. and Wall2Wall Jazz Festivals - giving a unique recital with special guest Dennis Rollins MBE on trombone at the latter. In 2025 they gave their European debut at the Stellae Matutinae European Harp Symposium in Feldkirch, Austria. In the UK they have performed at many jazz clubs including Pizza Express Jazz Club Soho, Black Mountain Jazz Club, Matt & Phred's Jazz Club Manchester, Music Spoken Here Club Worcester, Karamel Club London and Phoenix Foundry Jazz Club Stroud. Other venues they have performed at include The Acorn Penzance, Ashburton Arts, Bridport Arts Center, The Half Moon Putney, and the CICCIC Taunton.**
**Tracks by Chube, including their remix collaboration with BESPA, have been played on BBC Radio Wales Introducing with Adam Walton, BBC Radio 3 Jazz Now, BBC Cymru with Lisa Gwylim, and radio Cardiff multiple times. In 2019 Chube was a finalist for the Peter Whittingham Jazz Award. Chube released their second EP in August 2023, breaking new ground, garnering positive reviews, and developing their sound and blend of styles even further.**
**Bandleader Benjamin Creighton Griffiths is an Internationally touring jazz and classical harpist based in Wales. Originally classically trained he now specialises in jazz both as a soloist and with his bands – the Transatlantic Hot Club and Chube. His career has taken him across the world including performing in America, Canada, the Caribbean, Hong Kong, India, Brazil, Australia, China, Indonesia, Singapore and across Europe and has seen him collaborate with excellent musicians in both the classical and jazz world. As well as a performer he is a composer, most recently developing a concert schedule for his own Concerto for Jazz Harp & Symphony Orchestra.**

Pablo Dominguez, A Tribute: Iberian Colours, Javier Ruibal, Chano Dominguez
In collaboration with the Instituto Cervantes and guitarist [Maria Camahort](https://mariacamahort.com/perfil/), Tuned In London presents a special fundraising tribute to London’s late great guitarist and percussionist Pablo Domínguez from Cadiz, featuring his fellow musicians, his friends and family: [Iberian Colours](https://mariacamahort.com/mcq-iberian-colours/), a quintet project sprung from a multi-genre collaboration of Spanish musicians who seek to bring to classical Chamber Music inspiration from the vivid colours, rhythms and textures of Spanish musical art and traditions. Award-winning guitar (Maria Camahort), soprano (Laura Ruhí-Vidal), cello (Sergio Serra), violin (Violeta García) and Pablo Domínguez' percussion (Demi García Sabat) come together to create something of great charisma and personality. Their set will include the première of a piece composed for Pablo.
[Javier Ruibal](https://www.javierruibal.com/), exceptional singer songwriter, composer, poet and writer, awarded the Premio Nacional de las Músicas Actuales 2017, collaborator and neighbour of Pablo, who has performed at Ronnie Scott's, WOMAD and the Union Chapel, will be bringing us his stunning voice and guitar, his deeply moving poetry, melodies and lyricism.
Our special guest, [Chano Domínguez](https://chanodominguez.com/), father of Pablo, is an acclaimed and much-garlanded composer and pianist who brings a fusion of jazz and flamenco to his world-renowned innovative playing.
On February 3rd, 2025, guitarist and percussionist Pablo Domínguez (Cádiz, Spain) passed away as a result of a serious illness. One year later, his presence is still deeply felt in Spain, here in the UK and across the world, and this concert stands as a tribute to his genuine spirit and singular musical voice. City Hope Church is the venue in which he performed the last of his seven Tuned In London concerts.
This will be VERY SPECIAL... we will celebrate Pablo in the company of his friends, his family and his fellow musicians. Do come, do tell your friends about it...
We will also be hoping to raise funds for Pablo's wife and young children who will be present. So even if you can't attend, you might donate...
Tickets are available on the [Tuned In London websit](https://tunedin.london/)e.
Hope you can come.
Doors open at 6.15 when the bar will be open. Music from 7pm.

Contra dance with Big Scioty on March 7 - First Congregational Church
**Caller: Frank Buschelmann**
**Band: The Rosenthorns**
**Big Scioty Contra Dance**
**temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215**
WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing!
Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor.
Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner.
Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot.
For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/)
Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!
Dinner and Music!
**DINNER AND MUSIC**! Pubs, breweries, and American eateries often host local bands playing popular hits, country, or rock offering a nice ambiance for socializing and diverse food and drink menus.
*Tonight we'll check out [TIPTON TAVERN](https://www.pizza-cottage.com/locations) (inside Pizza Cottage Lewis Center).* Family-friendly casual [pizzeria](https://www.pizza-cottage.com/menu) for pizzas plus salads, wings and subs. We'll meet in the bar area, where the live music is set up. You're welcome to stay late, if you like.
