Ronnie Scott's Late Late show

Twice a week at NT’s loft a burgeoning community of London's finest signed and unsigned talent come together to make entirely improvised music. Jam nights are nothing new but Patterns is different.

Founded between the lockdowns at the height of the Covid pandemic by a group of artists who wanted to reclaim the joy of playing with each other. Patterns makes the effort to curate the best line up and also to be as inclusive as possible ensuring egos are left at the door and listeners and performers alike walk away with an experience they won’t forget, or find anywhere else.

“This could have only happened in London. Patterns reflects that melting pot and through the music creates a common, shared language. “

Co-founders Dani Diodato and Nicola Guida surround themselves with a community of the capital's best young independent musicians. The list of performers at their jam runs into the hundreds.

One of the outcomes of this vision is that Patterns has become a home for voices that struggle to be heard elsewhere.
