Julian Costello
“a charming host … some fine original compositions, and tenor playing of a gentle authority; full of passion, lyricism and invention all delivered with a full and vibrant tone” – Jazz Views
Acclaimed saxophonist, composer and educator, Julian Costello, has been an impressive fixture on the UK and European jazz scenes for many years, with several albums to his name. His latest, And All The Birds Were Set Free (33 Records) showcased his superb gifts as both bandleader and songwriter, with award-winning vocalist, Georgia Mancio, featured on two of his original compositions.
Last year also saw the release of the eponymous album with the band, Vertigo, which was featured live in session on BBC Radio 3’s In Tune.
Tonight he plays his own evocative and playful compositions, alongside well known British Pop past and standards. Expect jamming, humour, heart and high level improvisation.

About Us
We present world-class jazz concerts, two Thursdays a month, open to all: no membership required.
Our concerts take place in the comfortable lounge bar at Eltham Warren Golf Club, which is within walking distance of Eltham town centre and has its own free car park right outside.
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).
