FNUK, the brainchild of Pete Case, originated from the Bournemouth music scene in the late 2000s.

Sitting alongside Mr Case on the keyboards is Jason Rebello, who had four solo albums under his belt before his stint with renowned pop star Sting from 1998, replacing the late Kenny Kirkland.

For six years, they toured together, recording two studio albums, as well as contributing to a live album recorded at Sting’s Italian villa on September 11, 2001.

In 2007, Mr Rebello teamed up with infamous rock guitarist, Jeff Beck in a band that also included drummer Vinnie Colaiuta and upcoming Australian bassist, Tal Wilkenfeld, aged just 21 at the time but voted "Most Exciting Bass Player, 2008" by Bass Player magazine.

The keyboardist toured with Mr Beck's band for a six-year period, recording 2010 album Emotion & Commotion and co-authoring four of the tracks on the album.

Furthermore, Mr Rebello has shared multiple stages with the Stacey brothers, with Jeremy renowned for drumming on the albums of artists such as Robbie Williams, Sheryl Crowe and Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, and Paul, who is best known for his extensive work producing for Britpop giants Oasis.

The twins have joined Mr Case and Mr Rebello in the FNUK line-up, which also features Tim Fulker on the saxophone, and Pat Davey on bass guitar.

The band will play jazz-rock tunes from artists such as Weather Report, Allan Holdsworth, Pat Metheny and Alex Han.

Promoter, Music Spoken Here adopts a ‘pay-what-you-can’ ticketless admission, with the band set for an 8pm start.
