Second title from The Dime Notes, London’s blues drenched clarinet-driven 1920’s New Orleans jazz, hard-swinging and very stylish vintage jazz band.
A repertoire of stomps, blueses, and forgotten gems of the era from musicians such as Johnny Dodds, Jelly Roll Morton and Red Nichols.
Fronted by Chris Barber’s long-time clarinetist David Horniblow, an established figure on the London jazz scene and American pianist Andrew Oliver, a recent arrival to the UK, the band is anchored by the unstoppable pulse of London’s finest rhythm guitarist Dave Kelbie. The bass chair is occupied by London bassist Louis Thomas, in demand across many genre boundaries with his huge sound and stylistic versatility.

DAVID HORNIBLOW – Clarinet
