Alison Rayner Quintet

The U K’s foremost woman bassist brings a new band and new tunes.

Alison’s long-awaited debut CD under her own name was recorded live at The Vortex and the tunes are all her own compositions with the exception of Lennon/McCartney’s Fixing A Hole, which she has arranged.

Though extremely varied stylistically, Rayner leaves the audience in no doubt about her musical personality both as a player and composer.
Original music of a melodic nature to give everyone an opportunity to show off their soling capabilities.
