Jamie Cullum dazzled music fans at the penultimate Kenwood picnic concert of the season at the weekend.

Heavy rain earlier in the day did not deter thousands of people turning out for the event with their picnic baskets on Saturday.

The jazz maestro performed a mix of his most famous songs, cover versions and demonstrated some of his experimental music to put on an eclectic and exciting show for the audience.

And he made a point of thanking everyone for being at the concert he described as a "homecoming" for him and his band.

The season of picnic concerts, in association with the Ham&High, will conclude this Saturday with the Last Night of the Proms starring Faryl Smith and Wynne Evans. The evening will close with a spectacular fireworks display.
