The Night
Alfie's Christmas Party: the last Friday before Christmas, and the club throws its own. Bassist Tom Dring and his band take the stage one flight up above Greek Street, candles lit, martinis in festive order. Two houses, 6:00 PM and 8:00 PM, and this is the Friday every office party in Soho is trying to book. Get in first.
The Music
Tom Dring is a Derby born double bassist who trained at the Royal Academy of Music and plays in the tradition of Ray Brown and Christian McBride: driving walking bass and melodic soloing. He has worked with Alan Barnes, Gilad Atzmon and Soweto Kinch, played Ronnie Scott's, the Vortex, the 606 and the Barbican, and leads his own trio and sextet.
Expect the season's songbook swung the way Ray Brown would have wanted, from the carols everyone knows to the festive standards that only come out once a year, with a band that knows exactly how to throw a party. Dress up. The early house for the first toast, the late house for the party proper.
