Kate Shortt & Rupert Gillett - Cellicious

Two outstanding cellists and singers join forces to express their take on the world of jazz standards, Latin, originals and more in a special autumn tour.

Cellist, singer songwriter, cabaret artist and comedienne Kate Shortt is known for her avant garde improvisations and off the wall humour. Multi-instrumentalist, singer, composer and jazz bassist Rupert Gillett is also experienced in rock, blues and Eastern European styles. As the two join forces this autumn, sit back and enjoy a cellicious ride - from bebop to the blues, and Bach again! _ “...Shortt’s solo took the honours. It was an unusual but impressive juxtaposition of overtones, atonality and snatches of delicate folk melodies...”_ Ian Mann Jazz reviewer

“...The stand out performance came from Rupert Gillett. Great cellist with comical side and songs that were instantly playing in your head...” Fiona Jarvis - Blue Badge Style
