Mood Indigo Events is celebrating a decade of jazz.
Spring 2022 marks Mood Indigo Events’ 10th anniversary since the start of their concept of bringing great music to the SW London area and beyond, featuring the very best musicians on the scene. It all began with “Jazz At Retro”, a monthly gig at a French bistro in Teddington. This soon expanded to further events including the TW12 Jazz Festival. Mood Indigo Events is run by pianist Terence Collie and vocalist Janet McCunn who are dedicated to putting on the very best entertainment. Mood Indigo Events' website

Jim Mullen
Jim Mullen is a Glasgow-born jazz guitarist with a distinctive style, like Wes Montgomery before him, picking with the thumb rather than a plectrum. Having played with Brian Auger's Oblivion Express, appearing on the band's first three albums together with future Average White Band drummer Robbie MacIntosh, Mullen then joined Kokomo and later toured with the Average White Band. It was while both musicians were touring the U.S. with AWB in the mid-70s that Mullen met up with tenor saxophone player Dick Morrissey, and throughout the 1980s, he found considerable critical, if not commercial, acclaim as joint leader of the pioneering British jazz funk band Morrissey - Mullen.
