Ant Law quartet takes jazz to the Bridge
Bridge Music's Thursday jazz series at Glasgow Art Club continues tonight with London-based Scottish guitarist Ant Law's quartet playing music inspired by Law's extensive studies on New York's vibrant downtown jazz scene.
Trumpeter Steve Fishwick's international sextet follows on February 13, with Dick Lee's popular Dr Lee's Prescription returning on February 20 and Los Angeles saxophone star Don Menza, whose CV includes work with Maynard Ferguson, Buddy Rich, Elvin Jones, Louie Bellson, Nancy Sinatra and Leonard Cohen, providing a real coup on February 27, all subject to confirmation of funds from Creative Scotland.

Rutkowski album release
Singer Louise Rutkowski, who was one of the voices on the 4AD label's 1980s supergroup This Mortal Coil, sang with Glasgow group Sunset Gun, and combined forces with film composer Craig Armstrong on the 1993 album The Kindness of Strangers, has a new album out this month, funded by friends and supporters through PledgeMusic.
Diary of a Lost Girl is her first solo album, and the product of a writing partnership with Irvin Duguid and will be launched at Glasgow Print Studio in the Trongate 103 building on the evening of Valentine's Day.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
