Music at Marigolds incorporates Marigolds Jazz Club and Marigolds Blues Club and aims to be a friendly, low cost, non profit making organisation, offering good quality music. The Club first opened its doors in the Spring of 2003, and although run principally for the local community in Old Harlow, anyone is more than welcome and the Club now attracts people from throughout Essex and Hertfordshire and even London.

The Club holds its gigs in the Clubhouse at Harlow Cricket Club. Jazz gigs are held on the last Friday of the month and blues gigs are held on the middle Friday of the month. Alternative types of music are also played as advertised.

In order to make the music accessible to anyone every effort has been made to try and keep the price of admission as low as possible. It was only reluctantly in 2007 that the admission prices were raised for the very first and only time.

The Club's has never compromised in its principle of employing only the best musicians. Many of the jazz musicians are winners of, or have been nominated for, a much coveted British Jazz Award and many regularly tour the UK and abroad as do many of the Blues Bands.

The Club is run by a small group of volunteers who give freely of their time

Before the Club was started there was little live entertainment in Old Harlow especially for the wider community. A small group of jazz enthusiasts, principally, Greg Racey, Bob French and Vince Dunn, decided to do something about this and in the spring of 2003 they formed Marigolds Jazz Club.

Sadly Vince died in September 2005. He had been the landlord of the Marquis of Granby for 39 years before retiring to pursue his many other interests and duties supporting the local community in the Old Town

In Vince's memory the Club organised a memorial concert on 4th February 2006 held at the ARC in the Old Town. Nearly150 people attended and over £1100 was raised and donated to Leukaemia Research.
