Tonight we welcome the return of the Steve King Big Band one of the Midland’s leading exponents of big band music. The line-up as Steve's custom features an exciting mix of seasoned and semi-pros, alongside some of the brightest young talent just itching to make their mark on the U.K jazz scene, and do their bit help to keep the big band sound right upfront and personal.Since winning a talent competition with a major brewery in the early days the band has gone from strength to strength, appearing at every major venue in the West Midlands and several sold out appearances at Ronnie Scott's. The band were amongst the prize winners at the annual Musicians' Union Big Band Contest an unprecedented nine times, winning outright on two occasions. They have released six best selling albums and have released a new CD as part of its 50th Anniversary. The band can be heard regularly on several BBC Local & National Radio stations and Black Country Radio 102.5FM, and has had tracks played on BBC Radio 3’s “Jazz Record Requests”.
Vocals are in the very capable hands of Lynn Dawes who hails from the USA. Lynn has appeared on four of the band’s albums and has proved a big hit with audiences throughout the UK.
An absolute must for lovers of true big band jazz!
