If you want to improve your groove with tips and tricks from the finest funksters the UK has to offer, look no further than Great Yarmouth´s Residence Club, which will be welcoming the Jamiroquai band for a masterclass of funk and soul on the afternoon of 17 August 2008.
The event will feature long-standing Jamiroquai drummer Derek McKenzie, plus guitarist Rob Harris and Paul Turner on bass, who´ll not only play some of their biggest tracks but also take part in a Q&A session with the audience. It´s not often you get the chance to pick the brains of a band who can have six multi-platinum albums, a Grammy Award and an Ivor Novello stopping their collective doors, so we´d recommend getting your groove on for tickets. Visit Elusive Events Management's MySpace site for info on how to book.
