The quartet is made up of very talented young musicians from the British jazz scene and has performed worlwide in prestigious clubs, theatres and festivals around the world, including Tokyo Opera House, the Manchester Jazz Festival, Barcelona Jamboree Jazz Club and Moleto International Jazz Festival.
