World-class Live Music
award-winning artists
right in the heart of Eltham!
A former “Young Scottish Jazz Musician of the Year”, saxophonist Jo Fooks received an invitation from the legendary British trumpeter Humphrey Lyttelton to join his band, going on to perform and tour together for many years.
Citing Humph’s “fun-filled and melodic” approach as a major influence, Jo’s big, bright sound has also been compared to iconic players such as Stan Getz and Zoot Sims. She has also worked with many other world-class mainstream bands and artists, including Tina May, Scott Hamilton, Acker Bilk and Jo Harrop.
We present world-class jazz concerts, on the 3rd Thursday a month, open to all: no membership required.
We are named after the formidable Hugh & Marion Ockendon, who promoted live jazz in Eltham for over 32 years! Hugh, a classically trained pianist with a deep love of jazz, sadly died in 2020, followed by Marion, a cabaret artist and band vocalist, in October 2022.
Hugh & Marion’s legacy now continues under the stewardship of multi-award-winning vocalist, lyricist and producer Georgia Mancio (Alan Broadbent, ReVoice! Festival, Bobby McFerrin) and acclaimed drummer Dave Ohm (Ian Shaw, Benny Golson, Gregory Porter).
