Greg Gallagher studied Jazz at Leeds College of Music, before deciding to combine his love of music and coffee.

He said: “I’ve saved hard to invest in the best equipment - even though I’m selling out of a tuk-tuk, I want the quality of my coffee to match coffee shops around Leeds.

“Eventually, I want to run my own jazz bar and for people to walk past and think - oh look, that’s the place that used to be a mobile jazz cafe!”

Greg will launch his business at Leeds Food and Drink Festival, which will be held at Millennium Square on the 28th-30th June.
