Jaz Delorean is no stranger to the Albert, or indeed Stroud having spent a few months living in our beautiful valleys. Now a boat based singer, with the European touring band Tankus the Henge and also on his own at the piano. For this matinee afternoon gig ( doors 1pm, music 2pm) , He will entertain with his colourful past, together with a wild and wandering present. The songs that he sings and plays on the piano are tender observations of our fragile and sometimes twisted existence on this planet, taking inspiration from bar-room piano players of the Old West, the mournful melodies of his Cypriot ancestry and a patchwork of comic and tragic stories from growing up around a travelling funfair.

Strange things happen in dreams, but stranger things can happen in waking life, and Jaz Delorean has never shied away from baring his tattered soul to anyone willing to listen. He’ll pull at your heartstrings, and get you dancing to the rhythms of his fingers and forgetting your own worries for a time, before skulking off into the blackness behind the neon carnival lights again. Some things aren’t meant to be kept.

doors for this event are 1pm, with music starting at 2pm.
