Jools says: "I am tremendously honoured and proud that we can celebrate our show being on air for 250 years! It is my hope that we can continue to serve the public with the same wonderful mixture of artists – young, old, legends and newies, all serving the one great master that is music – for the next 250 years".

RADIO JOOLS BACK ON AIR
The new series of Jools' BBC Radio 2 show can be heard every Monday night at 11pm. He is joined in the studio by his Rhythm Section as he plays tracks from his eclectic record collection. Many illustrious names will keep you entertained in the coming weeks: Pete Molinari; Seth Lakeman; Rumer; Jesse Dee; and Walter Trout, to name a few. The season will run until Monday 15th November.

START – TICKETS ON SALE
Jools Holland will perform in the specially created auditorium in Friary Court under Proclamation Gallery on Friday 10th September. Contrary to a previous announcement, this intimate space will see Jools Holland on piano accompanied by Gilson Lavis on drums and Dave Swift on Bass with guest vocalists Ruby Turner and Louise Marshall, without the full Rhythm & Blues Orchestra.

Jools Holland curated the music programme for A Garden Party to Make A Difference and, in true Jools Holland style, the result is truly eclectic, from the legendary Rolf Harris (9 September) and boogie woogie/rock 'n' roll pianist Ben Waters (12 September) to some of London's best buskers and saw player Henry Dagg, creator of the pin-barrell harp and who most recently played the saw with Keane.

Alison, whose Top 10 hits include All Cried Out and Love Letters, says "I first sang with Jools in the early '80s on The Tube (the non public transport variety) and often times since and it is ever a pleasure".
