Mark Fletcher drums, Ross Stanley< organ and piano, Mornington Lockett sax, Laurence Cottle bass.
This brilliant and popular gig wowed us two years running! The nod to Miles Davis's "Bitches Brew" in the band's name is not accidental. Those who know Mark will not be at all surprised to hear his band described as a "powerhouse jazz fusion outfit." He is a remarkably talented and muscular drummer, capable of subtlety but never better than when leading an all-guns-blazing charge; which is both very exciting and intensely engaging.
Mornington Lockett is a powerhouse saxophonist with the ability to be lyrical at need. He is "One of the country's most accomplished contemporary improvisers ... with a fearsome technique and an advanced harmonic approach " - Time Out
Ross Stanley is the UK premier jazz organist and an amazing pianist. He has played for a huge range of top rank artists. He is a Hammond endorsee.
Laurence Cottle is a very diverse musician. He has played bass for artists as varied as Black Sabbath, Eric Clapton, Brian Eno, James Galway, Nina Hagen, Hanson, Tom Jones, and Seal. His jazz credentials are impeccable.
Come and embrace the "fusion of talents playing some of the most exciting and challenging music that can be found anywhere on the jazz scene"
