The event began when some of the regulars of The Alma Inn realised it would be cheaper to get The Producers to come to Linton, rather than hire a mini bus and drive all the way to Poole in Dorset.
Ìý
Then they decided rather than having one band - they'd have loads!Ìý
23 - 26 June: The Upton Jazz Festival
