Stella Goodey has been a jazz singer for 15 years and has released 3 CDs in that time, the last of which is selling worldwide. She sings at The Globe between tours specialising in singing Edith Piaf, Billie Holiday and Bessie Smith numbers and in her spare time she is writing her next album.

Stella will be joined by several experienced jazz musicians who have worked with big names such as the late Humphrey Lyttleton, Peggy Lee, Acker Bilk and the Ted Heath Big Band and calls the group which she describes as her dream team Stella and the Starlights.

Stella said: “Jazz is my first love and it is great to get together with good friends in the industry to play here. The Globe has a really relaxed feel which is why it is the perfect location for us to get together.”

The Globe Inn has also launched summer barbecues with a local flavour from lunchtimes through to evenings every day, weather permitting, when favourites such as sirloin steaks, sausages and burgers will be on the griddle and will be joined by other local seasonal favourites.

There is no additional charge to guests or diners for the jazz evenings at The Globe and they take place from 7-10pm on Thursday and Sunday in the courtyard or restaurant if wet throughout the summer.
