Multi award-winning pianist Gwilym
Simcock has been named-checked
as a ‘genius’ by Chick
Corea and has worked extensively
throughout Europe with top jazz
artists including Dave Holland,
Kenny Wheeler, Lee Konitz and
Bill Bruford’s Earthworks.
Mike Walker needs no introduction
to Mancunian listeners, and is
regarded as one of Europe's most
exciting guitarists, having worked
with George Russell, the Creative
Jazz Orchestra, Vince Mendoza,
and Bill Frisell. Steve Swallow’s
illustrious career spans decades
of playing with many of the jazz
greats - John Scofield, Carla
Bley, Chris Potter and many others.
Steve and his long-time friend
and rhythm section partner Adam
Nussbaum have worked on many projects
together. Adam's work with Michael
Brecker won a Grammy in 1988;
he was last seen in Manchester
at the RNCM in 2008 with Mike’s
project Ropes. «

The Stu Brown Sextet celebrates
the eyeball-popping, hyper-animated
‘cartoon jazz’ of
Raymond Scott, ‘the man
who made the cartoons swing.’
Though his name is largely unknown,
Scott’s remarkable music
will be familiar from its use
in the Looney Tunes cartoons from
the 1940s onwards and, more recently,
in Ren and Stimpy and The Simpsons.
His manic offbeat compositions
lend themselves perfectly to the
antics of Bugs, Daffy, Road Runner
and their 21st century equivalents.
