Blurb about the Musicians:
Led by the renowned RICHARD EXALL on tenor saxophone and clarinet, along with the exceptional Musical Director DOM BARNETT on piano, our talented musicians have meticulously arranged the music to capture the true essence of the era. The well-established rhythm section, comprising SAM KELLY on drums and MARIANNE WINDHAM on double-bass combine with the acoustic jazz-influences of TONY QUNTA (acoustic guitar) to set the foundation for a captivating and immersive musical experience. Complementing the ensemble is the much sought-after, multi British Jazz awards-winner, AMY ROBERTS (alto saxophone and clarinet) together with the powerful and enchanting vocals of GEMMA DORSETT and CHRISSIE MYLES, whose voices will transport you to the jazz clubs of yesteryears.
