top Jazz pianist and vocalists of our time and singer of world famous
song ‘The Lady is a Tramp’ which sold over one million copies and was
awarded a gold disk, is most well known for his appearances in the 60’s
with the ‘Rat Pack’. Already well known on the UK music scene he has
performed at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club and toured the UK with over 30
dates from July 2010 with the Swinging Las Vegas Legends Show. On New
Year's Eve 2011 he made a guest appearance on Jools Holland’s
'Hootenanny' singing ‘Fly Me to the Moon’ backed by the Jools Holland
Rhythm & Blues Orchestra.
Guests on the evening will be in for a real treat as Matt Cardle will
perform ahead of his tour commencing on Sunday 21st of October at the
HMV Institute, Birmingham. Matt will perform a never-before-heard
exclusive acoustic set as well as a track for his new album ‘The Fire’
due for release in the next few weeks.
The James Whale Fund Ball will be hosted in the sumptuous surroundings
of Café de Paris in London. Rich in history and boasting of entertaining
London for over 88 years Café de Paris is a jewel in the heart of
Piccadilly, complete with grand chandeliers and great sweeping
staircases.
The night will also include DJ set by The Royals favourite DJ Crispin
Dior, famous for performing at the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s

for the freshest music on earth”.

“It’s going to be a cracking night. We are honoured to have Buddy Greco
and Matt Cardle perform. The grand setting that Café de Paris presents
will provide the perfect back drop for guests to enjoy an evening not to
be missed!”
