‘An aural orgy of dazzling musicianship.’
The Independent
‘Smoking fretboards! This worldclass collective on mandolin, violin and
bass will light up your evening with an addictive blend of
30’s, 40’s and 50’s jazz, swing, ragtime, country blues
and originals. The band features composer, wit, fiddler and
guitarist Simon Mayor, three time UK banjo champion Richard Collins,
and sublime English folk vocalist Hilary James,
who is also a mean guitar and mandobass player.’

‘Slicker than the Torey-Canyon, hotter than a peppered sprout
and absolutely brill.’
The Living Tradition
‘An absolutely magnificent set of largely American country / old time /
blues that is so melody-rich you would honestly think it was going out of fashion.’
