AMERICAN jazz fusion band Everything Yes are coming to Future Yard in Birkenhead later this week. 

Led by a jazz drummer described as 'one of the best in the world and a viral virtuoso', Zack Grooves, the group is at the venue on Argyle Street on Thursday, May 2.

Merseyside jazz lovers are in for a treat, with a 'high energy jazz extravaganza', coming to Birkenhead thanks to Wirral-based events company Events 471

Spearheaded by enigmatic drummer Zack Graybeal, known famously as Zack Grooves on his platforms, Everything Yes are described as 'charismatic and high tempo trailblazers'.

The five-piece jazz fusion outfit are widely regarded as being one of the most entertaining live jazz bands in the US, led by Zack Grooves who has gone viral with his drumming prowess.

The event follows a hugely successful showcase of Anika Nilles, who Events 471 brought over for her UK debut with her band Nevell prior to a huge sold out show at Ronnie Scott’s.

She produced a drumming workshop and Nevell jazz showcase, having recently toured with guitar legend and Grammy Award winner Jeff Beck, and Future Yard was packed on a Monday night!

.Jazz lovers can thank Events 471 for these top bookings, who are doing great things to place big international acts alongside local talent at Wirral venues. With an ethical approach, they are helping develop local artist and bands whilst bringing a wide and diverse range of genres to the area.

With more than 2,000 tickets sold across 17 events in their first year, they’re doing a fine job.

Events 471's Carrick Moran said: "We are trying to keep our offering as diverse as possible, covering all genres, whilst giving local artists and bands the opportunity to flourish and express themselves too.

"In terms of these particular bookings, we’re proud to be bringing such big hitters of the jazz scene to Birkenhead".

He continued: "We also have regular jazz and poetry nights at Start Yard in Birkenhead, just around the corner from Future Yard.

"On the first Wednesday of every month we showcase top local jazz acts and Wordsmithery events on the third Wednesday — the evenings have gone down really well.

"It’s been a great start to 2024 so far and we have a diverse programme of events lined up — with something for everyone.”
