Josh Kemp is equally impressive playing within the jazz standards tradition and also presenting his own original compositions, Josh's playing style combines melodic inventiveness, a rich tone and a lyrical style of improvisation.The man has played over 200 gigs this year!
He brings a great band, all favourites with the club. Pete Whittaker's Organ playing is influenced by the great Jimmy Smith. Dick Pearce is a wonderful trumpeter, very under-rated in our opinion. Chris Higginbottom currently plays for the Ronnie Scott Allstars, Gilad Atzmon and Kyle Eastwood.
“Josh's Tenor sax playing made me feel that Coleman Hawkins had just entered the room – warm, mellow and punchy ... Splendid” - Charles Simmonds, Artistic Director, NC JAZZ
