The Jazz Voyager

From Copenhagen to London is the flight the Jazz Voyager is on to venture two streets back from Brighton’s pier, where The Verdict jazz club is situated, not in the buzzy Lanes area but in the rather more austere company of the law courts, hence the name at 159 Edward St, Brighton BN2 0JB, UK. Brimming with atmosphere, this purpose-built basement is adorned with original photographs of jazz legends, great acoustics and seats just 60.

If you are unfortunate not to get a seat for the adventurous programming with the Benet McLean-Mark Edwards Quartet, upstairs there’s a cafe that screens the performances. Admission £10-£15, students from £5, live jazz Friday and Saturday, pint £4, booking advised, 159 Edward Street. For more information the phone 01273 674847. #wannabewhereyouare
