KIM CYPHER’S FUNKY LATIN JAZZ PARTY - 6th February 2027 @ 8pm (Doors open at 7.30pm)
An uplifting, vibrant show full of positive energy and feel-good vibes.
Purdy is thrilled to welcome one of the country’s most exciting saxophonists, vocalists and composers Kim Cypher, together with her band of top UK jazz musicians. This is sure to have Henley buzzing with a lively, celebratory selection of Latin, jazz, African beats, Reggae and funky grooves.
Kim Cypher’s FUNKY LATIN JAZZ PARTY is the sequel to her hugely successful 2025 ‘LIVE and Smiling’ tour which included sellout shows across the country including Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club. This brand-new tour has been going down an absolute storm since it launched at the prestigious Cheltenham Jazz Festival 2026, closing the main DEYA Arena to a hugely enthusiastic crowd, followed by a return sellout show at Ronnie Scott’s.
Kim Cypher is a firm favourite on the UK jazz scene, renowned for her charismatic, vivacious style and warm stage presence. With four highly acclaimed albums, award-winning music videos and performance in New York, Kim has firmly secured her reputation as a leading figure in contemporary jazz, described as a “rare musical treasure” by Jazz FM’s David Freeman and a “force of nature” by jazz reviewer the Jazz Mann.
The band features Ghanaian guitarist Chris Cobbson who brings his authentic African influences to the music, Rich Hughes on piano, Mike Green on bass, Mike Cypher on drums who between them, have worked with some of the most highly respected artists and bands including Jools Holland, Ronnie Scott’s Big Band, Courtney Pine, Curtis Stigers, Sheila Ferguson (the Three Degrees), Ray Gelato, Osibisa, Liane Carroll, Pee Wee Ellis, Maceo Parker, Fred Wesley, Monty Alexander, Van Morrison, Paloma Faith…
This special evening will also feature a collaboration with your stunning jazz songstress hostess Rebecca Poole, celebrating the unique power of music to bring people together, united in a creative vision to share good times and great music.
