Talented and world renown husband and wife team, singer Jacqui Dankworth and pianist Charlie Wood are to appear at the Peel Centenary Centre on Saturday, July 1.

Together they will perform some of their favourite, jazz-infused duets, celebrating some of the great musical partnerships of the twentieth century.

Music from duets, such as Ray Charles and Betty Carter, Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, George and Ira Gershwin and Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway will feature throughout the set, along with songs such as ’Alone Together’, ’Autumn In New York’, ’It Don’t Mean a Thing’, ’The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face’ and ’You’ve Got a Friend’.

Jacqui Dankworth is one of the most celebrated singers in UK music today.

Although widely known as being primarily a Jazz singer, Jacqui, whose mother is the equally celebrated singer Cleo Laine, is master of many vocal styles, genres and disciplines, and is able to bend her incredibly distinctive and versatile voice to singing folk, roots, soul, blues and even classically-infused music.

The list of musicians she has performed and recorded with over the years is just as diverse.

They include the Brodsky Quartet, Courtney Pine, Paloma Faith, Alan and Marilyn Bergman, Georgie Fame, David Gordon, Charlie Wood, Gregory Porter, The London Symphony Orchestra, and legendary jazz pianist Chick Corea.

Charlie Wood, who was born in Memphis , Tennassee and found his musical calling in New Orleans, is equally as diverse and broad with his range and abilities.

The singer/songwriter and pianist is just as at home playing blues and jazz as he is with soul and traditional R&B.

At one time he played the keys for the Albert King band and has shared the stage with such greats as BB King, George Coleman, Mulgrew Miller and Alvin Batiste amongst others.

He has recently released an album, ’New Souvenirs’, which was produced by Jacqui, and they released a joint album, ’Just You, Just Me’, in late 2016.

Tickets for the show, which begins at 8pm, are priced £20, available from Celtic Gold, Shakti Mann, Peter Norris Music and Thompson Travel, Port Erin, or through centenary centre.com
