Chris Standring goes vinyl
Ultimate Vibe/Lateralize Records are proud to announce the long-awaited vinyl release of Wonderful World, the stunning new album by jazz guitarist, Chris Standring, which will be played in the intimate setting of Pizza Express – Holborn on 3rd March (8pm), 4th March (8pm) and 5th March (6.30pm and 9.30pm).
Backed by his drum-tight quartet, he will be performing a selection of songs from Wonderful World alongside some much-loved classics from his extensive back catalogue. Former Incognito frontman, Tony Momrelle will be appearing as special guest for all four shows.
"My kind of jazz music undoubtedly works best in an intimate setting, and it doesn't get much more intimate than Pizza Express – Holborn," Standring explains. "I haven't played a club show in London for many years, so I'm incredibly excited.
"It was so important for me to release Wonderful World on vinyl because it is undoubtedly the best format to listen to jazz. Streaming is great, but there's a palpable pleasure that you can only get when the needle hits the record and you immerse yourself in the warm glow of the music."
Wonderful World will be released on CD and Limited Edition Heavyweight 180g vinyl on Ultimate Vibe / Lateralize Records – 3rd March 2022
