Tomorrow night we're back up in the Midlands for an exciting new night at @doddingtongrainstore - all tickets are now sold out, but check out their future live jazz events: /event/grain-store-jazz-night/
You're in for a night of burning bop, beautiful ballads and classic Koko swinging vibes (if you managed to get a ticket!). We'll be dipping into the classic 'Live at Birdland' material.
Thanks to all of our Midlands fans for packing out @peggysskylight last weekend, what a great night! We'll be back later in the year!

Pictured: two of the core Koko members sharing an intimate moment before a show last month... Arran & Woody (+ James, but he's too cool for socials) run the behind the scenes side of KOKO COLLECTIVE.
Both used to being the 'boss' in other line-ups, the push and pull of running a band often leads to wrestling in the street and suchlike.
Only joking, this is one of the hardest working music business partnerships out there!
Come and say hi if you're at one of our shows this week!
Here's a taste of what to expect next week! We're bringing the swinging fire to London!!
We'll be burning down the new joint - Jack Solomon's on Thursday 28th Aug, and smoking all night for two shows at Alfie's Jazz Club on Friday 29th Aug.
We're also delighted to announce that we'll be appearing on the line-up for SOHO JAZZ FESTIVAL in September! More info coming very soon...
