Gale-force energy plus startlingly original material - dozens of awards over six years, including 2014 Parliamentary Jazz Awards Ensemble of the Year. Influences from Ellington through Loose Tubes to Radiohead, vivid ideas and brilliant mood changes – they’ve redefined the big band for the 21st century. Back again after their brilliant sell-out gig in Sheffield last year, and fresh from this year at Ronnie Scott’s, Manchester Jazz Festival .....
“ …startlingly original material … that acknowledges big-band traditions while radically modernising them.” John Fordham, The Guardian
