New Orleans Jam Session ft. Dom Pipkin

South London’s Home of New Orleans Jazz & Second-Line Groove.

Mark your calendar each month as Toulouse Lautrec Jazz Club turns into a slice of the French Quarter, a monthly New Orleans Jam Session celebrating traditional jazz, second-line rhythms, bluesy brass-band energy, and early swing.

Our jam invites musicians and singers of all levels to bring their instrument (or voice) and join a top-class house band for a night of collective improvisation, big melodies and joyous grooves. The evening begins with a short opening set from the house band before opening the floor to guest musicians. Whether you’re here to play or simply soak up the atmosphere, this is a welcoming, community-driven night celebrating the sound of New Orleans.

One of the UK’s leading New Orleans-style pianists, Dom Pipkin brings authentic Crescent City energy to the jam. A powerhouse vocalist and pianist, Dom is renowned for his deep knowledge of Professor Longhair, Dr John and the great New Orleans piano tradition, blending rolling left-hand grooves, second-line rhythms and infectious stage presence.
