You don’t have to be a music connoisseur, or even a huge lover of jazz, to appreciate the incredible work that is GoGo Penguin.
GoGo Penguin, the Manchester jazz-fusion three-piece who have steadily carved out a reputation among punters and critics alike, are playing the Alcatraz Club in Milan tonight. Formed in 2012, their debut album Fanfares, released later that year, was warmly received, and its follow-up v2.
Taking place in lush Victorian ‘pleasure gardens' a half-hour drive from Salisbury, Larmer Tree Festival is a far cry from the urban localities associated with many of the jazz acts on the line-up.
