Our Artistic Line-Up

We aim to bring you a wide range of danceable, funky, uplifting smooth Jazz, ranging from 1940s Jump Jive and Big Band swing to the grooveist Jazz Funk we can find. Past headliners have included:

Snake Davis - (M People, Take That, Paul McCartney)

The late great Pee Wee Ellis (James Brown, Van Morrison)

Snowboy and The Latin Section (Lisa Stansfield, Imelda May, Amy Winehouse, Rod Temperton)

Redtenbacher’s Funkestra (Steve Winwood,  Natalie Imbruglia, Imelda May, Joss Stone, Lulu, Paul Carrack)

We have between six and ten slots for bands each year. If you would like to perform at Stompin’ and think you are smooth, funky and jazzy enough for us, please fill in the form on our Bands page.

Please note that for 2024 we are committed to working with the artists we had to postpone in 2023.
