Biography:

These Exeter based musicians have wide-ranging individual backgrounds in classical music, traditional jazz, rock, blues, country, ragtime and roots, all drawn together by the shared pleasure of playing gypsy jazz and hot swing.

Performing to acclaim at festivals such as Dart Music Festival, Upton Jazz, Bude Jazz, Jazz Jurassica, Budleigh Music Festival, to sell-out audiences at numerous arts centres including Bridport, TCAT, Ilminster, Taunton CIC, jazz clubs and private events and for three years running at The Royal Albert Hall's 'Verdi Italian Kitchen' for their prestigious Valentine's Day event. They have built a reputation for their mix of ‘Hotclub’ favourites, jazz standards, soulful ballads, Latin swing, the occasional film theme and classical score! Toe-tapping rhythms and virtuoso melody lines combine in a performance with all the verve and joy that makes this music so irresistible.
