Boisdale Canary Wharf, London’s newest live music and restaurant venue, having built a successful entertainment 200-seater operation, invited JBGB Events to bring our jazz inspired media management experience to help Boisdale expand their music offering for existing customers and widen audience appeal.
On three Wednesday evenings in May and June, outstanding jazz and swing instrumental music makers, Calum Au’s TrombaFonics, Mike Paul- Smith’s Down For The Count and Chris Ingham’s REBOP perform, followed by four evenings of unique Big Band Monday’s in October and November, featuring 4 different bands, each of 17/18 top musicians and great singers, performing the sounds of the Great American Song Book, Count Basie, Duke Ellington and West Side Story.
Boisdale is named after the remote port on the beautiful Isle of South Uist in the Outer Hebrides, off the North West coast of Scotland. It was home to the Macdonalds of Boisdale – the senior cadet branch of the Macdonalds of Clanranald, the largest and most anciently Royal of all the Highland clans. There are more than three million Macdonald clansmen throughout the world – all of whom can lay claim to this magnificent heritage, which has been charted down the generations.
Today, Ranald Macdonald, the elder son of the 24th Chief of Clanranald, hosts Boisdale’s restaurants and bars. Boisdale captures the essence of these centuries of proud tradition with its warmth, informality and end of empire atmosphere, reminiscent of a Highland country house.
Boisdale offers relaxation and entertainment throughout its diverse range of dining rooms and bars, each with its own unique style, character and atmosphere. The many period details, including richly panelled walls and an eclectic collection of classic and modern paintings and prints, provide a perfect setting for live jazz from the ‘30s, ‘40s and ‘50s.
