SRONK #146: THE FINAL SKRONK

This is it, the final SKRONK event! After a nearly glorious 8 years it's farewell. A gigantic thanks goes out to the amazing Rick Jensen, who runs these inspirational Tuesday nights with gusto, humour and his own talent as a musician. He made SKRONK a desirable home for musicians in London, the UK and improvisers further afield. We surely shall miss those nights!

Thanks also to the amazing New River Studios for hosting SKRONK.
