About the show
A Sunday night of blues-drenched, clarinet-driven 1920s New Orleans jazz at Jamboree with London’s hard-swinging vintage jazz band, The Dime Notes.
Expect a repertoire full of stomps, blueses and forgotten gems from musicians such as Jelly Roll Morton, Johnny Dodds, and Red Nichols.
"Inspired" - The Sunday Times
The Dime Notes have a reputation for their unorthodox approach to the blues-drenched sounds of clarinet-driven 1920's New Orleans jazz.
The band is fronted by UK clarinetist David Horniblow. Much admired on the European jazz stage for his foot-stomping approach to hot swinging jazz, David has travelled the globe with just about every respected band.
Featuring - The Dime Notes
Blues-drenched sounds of clarinet-driven 1920’s New Orleans jazz with London's hard-swinging vintage jazz band, unearthing a repertoire of hot swinging jazz, stomps, blueses, and forgotten gems of the era by musicians such as Jelly Roll Morton and James P Johnson.
Fronted by Chris Barber’s long-time clarinetist David Horniblow, an established figure on the European jazz stage and American pianist/composer/musicologist and Jelly Roll Morton specialist Andrew Oliver, a recent arrival to the UK, the band is anchored by the unstoppable pulse of London’s knockout rhythm section, guitarist Dave Kelbie, accompanist in Evan Christopher’s Django a la Creole, John Etheridge’s Sweet Chorus and bassist Tom Wheatley, well known across the international scene for his swing and versatility and in demand across many genre boundaries with his huge sound and stylistic versatility.
The Dime Notes emphasise the propulsive grooves and sultry melodies which made early jazz revolutionary, controversial, and wildly popular.
