JAZZ lovers should journey to Loggerheads later this month when an acclaimed act from around North Wales take up their trumpets for an evening of jamming.

The Caffi Florence, in the country park, will play host to the smooth sounds of the Jazz Heralds Quintet on July 10.

"We’re really excited to be having a jazz event in such a lovely venue. We’ve already had lots of interest from local people and jazz fans from across the wider region" said Jane Clough, Caffi manager.

Fronted by vocalist Andy Gleave, a lecturer at Wigan and Leigh College, the Quintet features musicians from around the region who all have a strong pedigree performing at jazz venues and festivals around the country.

The jamming begins at Caffi Florence at 7pm. Tickets cost £5 (concessions £2.50), with an optional tapas supper available. Tickets and further details are available on 01352 810397 and at www.caffiflorence.co.uk
