The Cosimo Matassa Project is a London-based collective of musicians united by a passion for 1950s Rhythm & Blues, and a love for the artists who passed through the studios of legendary producer Cosimo Matassa. The savvy studio owner was one of the first to recognize the goldmine that was New Orleans’ music scene, and worked his magic with the likes of Fats Domino, Big Joe Turner and Little Richard, in a tiny, unassuming room in New Orleans’ French Quarter.
Expect to hear classics from these artists and more, as frontman Dai Price and his band return to Nighthawks after hit performances in previous years. They will also be celebrating the release of their debut EP ‘Sahara’, out in June 2025.
