@MrEdByrne Hah we thought it was you, racing us to the summit. Thanks for taking the picture of our amazing scouts. https://t.co/wrEL2BzxFc

We had such a blast yesterday afternoon. A canter through the history of #jazz with a large and lovely crowd, hosted at the gorgeous @southernmalting in #Ware

‘Buy my book. It took ages to write!’ There are other good reasons, but humour and honesty in the author are a good place to start. Thanks for the invitation to the launch, @LeahBroad and I’m looking forward to reading the book 🙂

Wow. Just wow. A heartfelt thank you to all the players, singers and listeners who made last night so special. Our biggest Hitchin Jazz Jam yet. Here's to 2023 - see you on Jan 19th: https://t.co/DrGZfaKodf

I've directed the music for the carol service at @CCHitchin many times, and it's always lovely to hear the story again through the readings and music. Many thanks to the choir who turned up on the day and sang their socks off 🙂

All set… @SwynfordManor

I did a little jazz fluting for the first time on Thursday. Not quite the full Ron Burgundy but I can dream :)

[Paul Arnold @paulfarnold]

@radioliq @Jazzfuel @MTHitchin Ah thanks for the mention. Next one is a week later than normal… Dec 22nd. Dave Keech guests on trombone. Should be a good one :)

[Paul Arnold @paulfarnold]

I did a little 'yazz-flute' for the first time on Thursday. Not quite the full Ron Burgundy, but we can dream...

[Paul Arnold @paulfarnold]

@BenMotley @SallymHawkins @bellowheaduk @brightdome Ah that's brilliant - a friend saw them on tour and was blown away!

[Paul Arnold @paulfarnold]

Beautiful location, beautiful music. Beautiful people too ofc :)

The first fruits of some filming we did recently. Some classy #Bach for you, which incidentally can also be heard in our upcoming gig on Dec 2nd in #Stevenage: https://t.co/Efx0bcJDTR

So chuffed to be part of this. That's us bathed in purple in the distance! #HitchinCreative

Shooting a showreel today. This is a look you won’t see, having been unaccountably vetoed by my nearest and dearest.

[Paul Arnold @paulfarnold]

We did it! Properly hard, but quite an experience. Here's the before, during (Tyne Bridge) and after... once I'd had some jelly beans and got off the floor. Still time to donate at https://t.co/7sHdBUQtd2 #greatnorthrun2022 @allwecanuk

#HitchinJazzJam is kicking off the new season in style with fantastic guest vocalist #SarahEllenHughes. Head down to @MTHitchin next Thursday (15th) to play, sing or just listen. Music starts from 8.30. https://t.co/DrGZfaKodf

[Paul Arnold @paulfarnold]

Peter Sellers or 70s kids TV? Either way, it's a classic. Clap hard at the end of our gig on Saturday and we'll treat you :) #PinkPanther

[Four Winds Saxophone Quartet @4windsquartet]

Dusting off a sax classic ready for Saturday's #Stevenage gig. Still time to book: https://t.co/1jGCsjLMsv See you there...

[Paul Arnold @paulfarnold]

Today has been unexpectedly significant. My jazz quintet has been going under the name 'Kind of Blur'... 'cos it does songs from the charts in the style of the biggest-selling jazz album ever, #KindofBlue.

But until now, I had no actual Blur song in the setlist. Until now.

[Paul Arnold @paulfarnold]

Sound engineer’s hat on tonight, recording the amazing @fodensband and @HitchinBand

Posters and flyers are here, woop woop! Better get practising :) https://t.co/KdkAoyEJkT
