Kenny Ball & His Jazzmen
Kenny Ball and
his Jazzmen are
as popular today
as they were
back in 1960
when they had
their first
chart hit with
‘Samantha’.
Hit after hit
came pouring out
until the final
tally was
fourteen UK Top
30 records – a
figure that
eclipses even
Kenny's idol,
the great Louis
Armstrong's
total, and an
achievement
which has yet to
be equaled by
any other jazz
artist.

The Big Chris Barber Band
With his
10-piece band,
featuring a
7-strong front
line, Chris
plays a
selection of his
favourite music:
from his roots
in New Orleans
style in
‘Bourbon Street
Parade’ to the
early music of
Duke Ellington
and Sidney
Bechet ...
before going
back to ‘When
the Saints’!
The Big Chris
Barber Band
combine all
these
ingredients into
an evening of
exciting, and
often moving,
Jazz.

Acker Bilk & His Paramount Jazz Band
Acker Bilk first
gained worldwide
fame with hit
single 'Stranger
On The Shore' in
1962 - it stayed
in the charts
for 55 weeks and
was the first
number 1 hit in
UK and USA
simultaneously.
Since that time
Acker and his
Paramount Jazz
Band have firmly
established
themselves as
one of the most
successful (and
best loved)
British jazz
bands of all
time.
