Chill out with music at The Cricketers

It promises to be the perfect antidote to the stresses and strains of the Christmas shopping rush.
Instead of the sound of shopping tills, you can chill at The Cricketers in Cathedral Road, Cardiff, to the sound of Swing, Latin and Lounge music.
Taking centre stage for an evening of live music on Sunday, December 12, will be Sarah & H (pictured above), a vocal and guitar duo from the superior end of the musical shelf.
“The idea is simple,” said Cricketers manager Michelle Francis. “It’s the perfect way to unwind after the madness of the Christmas shopping rush. Come to The Cricketers, enjoy a great Sunday roast dinner and relax with a pint and some good music.”
Music promoter David Brockwell agreed and said he was sure a 5pm start to the musical evening would be just what the doctor ordered for tired shoppers.
He said: “Sarah & H perform with the much-loved Mike Harries' Root Doctors, the renowned jazz and R'n'B band who perform annually at festivals such as Brecon Jazz and Pontypool Jazz.
“Already well known for their Root Doctors work, Sarah & H deserve to take the spotlight on their own.
“Sarah & H blend songs from across the jazz spectrum in their own unique style.
“They are a superior vocal/guitar duo who combine original material with an eclectic mix from artists such as Norah Jones, Madeleine Peyroux and Michael Buble.
“Listen out for choice tracks from Diana Krall, Donald Fagen, The Gotan Project, Ella Fitzgerald, Stevie Wonder and Nina Simone.”
Mr Brockwell added: “December 12 promises to be a memorable evening’s entertainment. Sit back and and enjoy what we hope will be the first of many special musical evenings at The Cricketers.”
