Sold out annually at Ronnie Scott's in 2012-2019 and regularly featured at Dean Street, this Sunday night concert, Jazz At The Movies: A Swinging Christmas! is the perfect way to complete your weekend and swing into the holidays. The concert is fronted by acclaimed singer Joanna Eden ("The UK's answer to Norah Jones and Diana Krall"- Time Out) following on from her acclaimed concerts performing the songs of Joni Mitchell and the music of Ella Fitzgerald.  Supporting her are the groovy sounds of Dean Street regulars the Chris Ingham Quartet ("One of the finest combos in the country" – Jazz Journal).
