New JLQ recordings and gig dates for 2024!


JLQ - (LtoR) Matt Casterton, Simon Cambers, John Lake & Elizabeth Bustard

It's been a few months since the band were on the road so we thought you'd like to see a live recording of excerpts of new original tunes we made in August 2023. We'll be on the road again performing in Crowborough and Brighton in April and back at the Unitarian Church and St Nicholas Church in Brighton in July/August but look out for more details coming up and see the gig tab list for more details. In the meantime we hope you enjoy the Showreel and look out for some full length tracks in the near future.
