A winner of over 25 British Jazz Awards, Alan Barnes is best known for his work on clarinet, alto and baritone sax, where he combines a formidable virtuosity with a musical expression and collaborative spirit that has few rivals. An entertaining raconteur, as well as a fine musician, Alan has performed and recorded with numerous musical greats, from leading London’s Pizza Express Modern Jazz Sextet, to touring with The Rolling Stones’ Charlie Watts, collaborations with playwright Alan Plater, and even recording with Bjork.
Guitarist Colin Oxley is one of the unsung heroes of the British Jazz Scene. A musician’s musician he was a long-standing member of Stacey Kent’s group with whom he recorded several albums as well as touring worldwide, appearing at the Montreux, North Sea, Nice, and Vienne Jazz festivals, plus residencies in New York and San Francisco.
They're joined by Ronnie Scott's regular, Arnie Somogyi on bass.
Greensand Jazz audiences may remember this trio from an appearance earlier this year at the Black Lion Gin Festival but will appreciate the chance to hear them close up. Expect a night of intimate, swinging jazz.
