Frinton Jazz Club – The Derek Nash Funk Experience

The Derek Nash Funk Experience with special guest Noel McCalla Vocals

Friday 9th January 2026

The Derek Nash Funk Experience is the opportunity for top British Jazz Award winning UK saxophonist Derek Nash (Jools Holland/Ronnie Scotts Blues Explosion/Sax Appeal) to play the funk and groove hits that have influenced him throughout his career.

The Funk Experience draws from a back catalogue of hits by Bill Withers, The Crusaders, The Average White Band, David Sanborn, Grover Washington Jnr, Herbie Hancock, the JBs  to perform crowd-pleasing, spirit-lifting funk tunes and creating a night of foot-tapping, hand-clapping good times!

With the addition of the mesmeric vocalist, Noel McCalla (Derek’s long time partner from “ The Wonder of Stevie” Show) they can pay tribute to Soul artists such as Al Green, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder and Bill Withers.
