Since forming in 2017 the quintet have taken their music further afield, playing the International Blues on the Bay Festival, as well as a BBC Radio Ulster live session. They have continued to shake up the jazz scenes in Bristol night clubs. The band are a pillar of the Northern jazz community, with their most notable gig to date being in November 2021 supporting MonoNeon at Future Yard, Birkenhead.
Dubbed by 'Get Into This' as "A band that everyone is going to be talking about. Life-enhancing," they're one to watch.
They comprise of:
Sarah Sands - saxophone
Jack O’Hanlon - guitar
Tom Barber - piano
Dan Barreto - bass/ double bass
Ben Johnson - Drums
