Geoff Mason trombone, Steve Fishwick trumpet, Simon Spillett sax John Horler piano, Trevor Tomkins drums, Tim Wells bass


Former Coldstream Guards trombonist Geoff Mason has established himself as one of the UK’s finest exponents of "Blue Note" era jazz. He brings a superb band to honour the great drummer, educator and general jazz hero, Art Blakey.

Simon Spillett and Steve Fishwick make up a superb front line. John Horler is one of the finest jazz pianists about. We know Tim Wells and Trevor Tomkins from their excellent work with John Critchinson's tribute to Ronnie Scott earlier in the season, and many other gigs.

Be prepared for a joyous, swinging evening.
