Maureen Washington at Choppards Mission

Jazz supremo Maureen Washington, from British Columbia in Canada, will be singing at Choppard’s Mission, Holmfirth on Saturday 15th April at 7.30pm, accompanied by multi-instrumentalist Jez Platt.

Maureen will be accompanied by Jez Platt, an accomplished multi instrumentalist, and jazz musician. His current project is the piano trio "Jazz Soul Moment". Jez contributed on keyboards to the debut album from Illum Sphere called Ghosts of Then and Now....
