Legendary guitarist John Etheridge joins forces with the sensational vocals of Vimala Rowe. Together, they weave a magical spell, effortlessly travelling musically from India to Africa, the Middle East and the USA.

John Etheridge has had substantial relationships during his 45-year career with some of the most famous names in 20th-century music, including Stephane Grappelli, Nigel Kennedy, John Williams, Yehudi Menuhin, and Soft Machine.

Vimala Rowe has been gaining plaudits wherever she goes. An exemplary jazz singer with a faultless and deft expression, Rowe has a unique style that complements John’s explorative nature. She was recently featured in Paco Pena’s Flamencura at Sadler’s Wells, an indication of the breadth of her talent.

They weave together a magical journey that takes the audience across continents. John will also perform solos from his celebrated show, which he has performed for 10 years all over Europe. This unique pairing satisfies on so many levels. It is not to be missed.

Their album ‘Out of the Sky ‘ was elected as the Top Ten critic’s choice of album of the Year 2016 in both the Guardian and the Sunday Times, and the track ‘Detour Ahead ‘was in the Top Five in the Guardian.

"Vimala and John are really excited to be performing at Crazy Coqs as part of LJF. They will be previewing tracks from their brand new album."
