Singer Jamie Cullum took to the stage at London's legendary Ronnie Scott's jazz club last night for a tribute concert to honour late drummer Chris Dagley.


The musician died in July this year when he lost control of his motorbike and crashed on a road in White City, London.

Dagley, who previously played with Lionel Richie and Take That, was a rising star on the jazz scene in the U.K. capital and performed as part of the house band at the famous venue. And yesterday evening, the stars turned out to celebrate Dagley's life.

Cullum, along with other musicians including Natalie Williams, Carleen Anderson, James Pearson and Rick Astley, played at the club, with ticket proceeds going towards the Chris Dagley memorial fund, according to the venue's website.


Sounds like it was a wonderful evening, given the circumstances.
