Simon Coles speakeasy Jazz night

Jazz fans can enjoy some live music with regular Thursday fixture Simon Coles performing Thursday, April 9 night at Speakeasy Jazz Club in Fuengirola.

Simon Coles Thursdays NYC Club Revival at the venue, offers a smooth and soulful piano-club style midweek alternative to the usual bars and late-night spots on the Costa del Sol. Admission is free and table reservations optional. 

The setting of the club fits perfectly with the music

Specialising in piano and vocals, Simon’s style has been described as ranging from smooth cocktail jazz to more upbeat classics. Laid-back jazzy cocktail sounds to funky, soul and dance-led sets, covering hits from the 1970s, 80s, 90s and noughties. Educated at the University of York and now living on the Costa del Sol, he is regarded as one of the coast’s finest musicians. The sessions have a broad appeal, attracting dedicated jazz fans, but also people simply looking for a stylish night out with live music in the background.

The setting also perfectly fits the mood. Speakeasy Jazz Club has the feel of a classic cocktail lounge, with a moody interior that helps create its intimate atmosphere. The decor is designed in the speakeasy look, with low lighting, a cosy layout and a club-style setting that brings the audience closer to the music. Altogether, it gives the venue a warm, relaxed and slightly old-school feel that suits live jazz especially well.

The jazz vibe gives people a different option from a normal evening out

Fuengirola has the seafront, an array of  bars, restaurants and a very busy social life, and the town also has a growing appetite for smaller live music venues offering something a little more intimate. A jazz night built around piano, vocals and a club atmosphere gives people a different option from the more standard pub or terrace experience.

Regular nights like this are important. They give people something reliable to look forward to each week and help strengthen the local live music scene beyond one-off concerts or seasonal events. 

For anyone after a more laid-back musical evening, the Simon Coles Thursdays NYC Club could be for you. Visit the Speakeasy Jazz Club Facebook for more information.
