The Fraser Smith Quartet featuring Harry Allen will perform at City Varieties Music Hall in Leeds on 16 January 2027. The event showcases a hard-swinging tenor with a sound reminiscent of the golden ages of jazz from the 1940s through to the 1960s. Further information regarding ticketing is available via the official website.
Fraser Smith is a hard-swinging tenor man with a sound reminiscent of the golden ages of jazz from ’40s Kansas City through ’60s New York. ‘A tenor it isn’t tough to like’ (Times), Birmingham-born Smith is carving out an enviable reputation playing saxophone in the style he’s completely obsessed with. With an almost constant concert schedule and two recordings under his belt, he’s already confirmed himself as one of the most compelling tenor saxophonists currently working in British jazz. New York-based Harry Allen, featured on this tour, is a worldwide legend on the scene… a jazz institution who’s been headlining festivals globally for as long as anyone can remember. He’s a Rhode Island Music Hall of Fame inductee with over 70 albums. ‘On stage, the musicianship is off the scale…’ Guardian
