 The Peter Blegvad Quintet
Saturday 13 April, 7.30pm
Clapham Library
Tickets £10
Clapham Library Live is proud to host a preview performance of the first ever UK appearance from the Peter Blegvad Quintet. All five performers are flying into London for a major one-off gig – and to celebrate libraries - are putting on a special preview show here at Clapham library. The cream of Avant-garde experimentalism coming together. This truly isn’t to be missed!
“Peter is joined by longtime comperes John Greaves and Chris Cutler, on bass and drums respectively, and of course they are maestros… he fills out the band with Bob Drake on guitar and Karen Mantler, who plays keyboards, chromatic harmonica and provides backup vocals. Greaves and Cutler comprise one of the most innovative and intricate rhythm sections in modern music... Drake and Mantler fill out the band's sound beautifully; the result is some of the warmest, most humane music Blegvad has ever produced.” – Glenn Kenny

Five years ago, DeRay Mckesson quit his job as a school teacher, moved to Ferguson, Missouri, and spent the next 400 days on the streets as an activist, helping to bring the Black Lives Matter movement into being. DeRay, in his distinctive blue vest, became a regular sight on TV screens and a spokesperson for a new generation of activists. Now, in his first book, Mckesson lays down the intellectual, pragmatic, and political framework for a growing liberation movement.
DeRay will be in the UK for two days only, join him at Brixton Library in conversation. Limited seats available, so free booking essential
