The Jay Rayner Sextet

Get your jazzy ’80s on with the Jay Rayner Sextet. Box-shouldered jacket and big hair optional.

A man who came of age in the 80s, Jay Rayner – restaurant critic, MasterChef judge, and accomplished jazz pianist – has long been fascinated by the era’s chart hits, many of which weren’t just jazz-inflected but had jazz in their very core. Following an acclaimed debut at Woolwich Works, Jay leads a sextet of top-flight musicians presenting fresh arrangements that reveal the depth, swing and sophistication behind these iconic songs.
