SUMMARY:The Siglo Section featuring Kat Rees
DESCRIPTION:wall2wall Jazz Festival is proud to welcome The Siglo Section\, Cardiff’s hottest young big \nband\, to this year’s festival lineup. \n \nFounded in 2019 by dynamic duo Matt Lush and Loz Collier\, The Collective has quickly \nestablished itself as one of South Wales’s premier jazz ensembles – bringing a bold\, youthful \nenergy to the big band tradition. \n \nThis 18-piece powerhouse features the classic big band formation – saxes\, trumpets\, \ntrombones and a full rhythm section. Their repertoire blends swing-era classics with modern \nfunk\, innovative arrangements and original works from within the band. \n \nThis vibrant ensemble showcases South Wales’ top emerging talent and features the \nstandout vocalist Kat Rees. Kat is a Welsh bilingual jazz singer celebrated for her soulful \nvoice and innovative blend of traditional and contemporary jazz. Featured on BBC Radio \nCymru and BBC Radio3\, she made history with The Siglo Section by releasing the first \noriginal Welsh-language big band jazz EP. Praised as the “Welsh Ella Fitzgerald\,” Kat \ncontinues to captivate audiences both live and on air. \n \nMore than just a band\, The Siglo Section is a vibrant musical community – a hub for \ncreativity\, collaboration and high-calibre live performance. Whether they’re channelling the \ngolden age of jazz or pushing boundaries with contemporary sounds\, their performances are \nelectrifying\, fresh and not to be missed. \n \nJoin us at wall2wall Saturday to experience the energy\, skill\, and spirit of the next generation \nof big band jazz.

SUMMARY:Ian Shaw Performs the Music of Joni Mitchell and David Bowie
DESCRIPTION:Closing our festival weekend\, multi-award-winning singer\, Ian Shaw\, performs one of his \nfavourite shows\, fusing the words and music of two of popular music’s genius giants – Joni \nMitchell and David Bowie. \n \nTraversing the mammoth back catalogue of these legendary and influential artists\, this solo \nshow draws on stories from the early seventies and our own ideals of love\, hope and the \nendless presence of the darker truths of recent times. \n \nShaw recorded a critically highly praised album of Joni Mitchell (‘Drawn To All Things’\, Linn \nRecords) and has a personal connection to both\, which is the core of this exciting show. This \npromises to be a highly charged evening of tears\, laughter and simply great song writing. \n \n“Jazz singer Ian Shaw is almost too talented for his own good…a brilliant vocal chameleon”; \nThe Telegraph  \n“Great jazz singers\, like great comedians\, are masters of timing. That Ian Shaw is a virtuoso \nof both disciplines\, balancing stand-up and concert gigs\, speaks to the breadth of his genius \nand to the singularity of his style as a singer”: Jazz Times (USA) \n \nWebsite \nwww.ianshaw.biz
