Pat Levett's Harmonica Quintet

As a drummer Pat Levett includes work with the likes of Tom Jones, James Hunter & Tim Minchin but is probably best known here at the Club as the drummer/leader of the ever-popular band The Coalminers. However, Pat also plays harmonica on several numbers during the show as he is a highly accomplished chromatic harmonica player as well! His 2024 album “Where Do You Start” showcased his talent on the instrument, and his recording sessions on harmonica include the likes of James Morrison, Pete Townshend, The London Philharmonic Orchestra & Elaine Page. As Pat says, “expect melodies and songs from composers and artists such as Quincy Jones, Kenny Wheeler, Herbie Hancock, Ry Cooder and of course Stevie Wonder!”. Unsurprisingly the band is made up some of the UK's finest musicians, Ross Stanley-Hammond organ, Artie Zaitz-guitar, Tom Herbert-bass and Ian Thomas-drums, plus a little bit of percussion from Pat.

“The biggest, and most welcome, surprise is Pat Levett’s harmonica solo…Levett’s performance…bringing a fresh voice to this oft-covered song” UK Jazz News
