Info
Jools Holland brings his Rhythm and Blues Orchestra to Watford Colosseum, Watford, on 6 November 2026. A pianist rooted in boogie-woogie, rhythm and blues and early rock’n’roll, he leads a large ensemble where the brass section, rhythm team and his quick, percussive piano set the tone. The live sound moves between jump-blues riffs, shuffles and rolling grooves, with tight voicings and space for solos that keep the music flowing.
After his start with Squeeze, Holland built a catalogue under his own name and shaped this orchestra around the big-band language explored on albums like Small World Big Band. On stage he stitches originals and hand-picked classics into arrangements that spotlight melody and pulse over flash, with left-hand figures driving the beat and call-and-response lines answering from the horns. The result is a set anchored by groove and ensemble interplay, led from the keyboard with a relaxed, precise authority.
