Jools in the crown...
With that in mind, it’s probably apt that Summer Days – the UK’s newest boutique music and food festival – has unveiled Jools Holland and His Rhythm and Blues Orchestra as its second headliner.
The legendary pianist, band leader, singer, composer and presenter will top the bill on Friday July 8 with an unmissable set of boogie-woogie classics in what promises to be the party of the season.
