Bloomsbury Chillin!
A spectacular line-up of music to thrill you!
Starting with some Gentle Swing during lunch then an exciting line up of stage performance from 5pm to 9,30pm.

Special appearance by:

LUSHLIFE featuring Paul Ryan and Kenny Clayton. 
KENNY CLAYTON:  Kenny, affectionately known to friends and fans as 'KC', is simply one of the best pianists in the country. His work as one of our finest musical directors has teamed him with such artists as Shirley Bassey, Charles Aznavour, Dick Haymes, Sacha Distel, Matt Monro and Petula Clark (with whom he still embarks on international tours).

PAUL RYAN:  Paul, much like the late George Melly, manages to combine a singing career with a parallel one as a prolific writer. But, while Melly was a devoted blues singer, Ryan is an unabashed crooner.  In 1996, the French Government named him Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres, and he was raised to the rank of Officier in 2008.
