'David Lyttle's Miscellany' an evening supporting Help Musicians UK

Jazz star David Lyttle launches ‘Miscellany’ - a series of uniquely curated one-off performances from Help Musicians UK.

The MOBO-nominated musician and the ‘most celebrated jazz musician of today’ will bring a host of world-famous artists to London’s legendary 100 Club venue on 5 February. Amongst the stellar line-up will be Seamus Blake, Michael Janisch and the Meilana Gillard Trio.

David Lyttle has been described as Ireland's most celebrated jazz musician of today and the Independent recently lauded David as representing the best in jazz coming out of Ireland. He's collaborated with jazz legends and icons, including Joe Lovano, Soweto Kinch and Jean Toussaint, and always keeps a global diary.
