About the show

This quintet have long been a regular fixture at ‘The Speakeasy Jazz Club’ brining the authentic sounds of 50’s bebop to the fore with material influenced by some of the pioneers of the music such as Horace Silver, Dexter Gordon and Kenny Dorham. More recently the group have recorded a CD focusing on the original compositions of local pianist and UK jazz legend, Roy Hilton. The album will be available tonight as well as the focus for tonight’s concert. Sion Savage (Saxophone) Roy Hilton (piano) chris Coull (trumpet) Dan Sheppard (bass) Joe Edwards (drums).
